What color is Behr Flagstaff Green?
Behr Flagstaff Green N400-3 is a light, muted green with a soft gray cast that keeps it understated rather than leafy or bright. Its pale value gives walls an airy, gently weathered look, especially in rooms with steady natural light. The gray influence can make this shade appear slightly cooler in north-facing spaces, while warmer bulbs bring out its subtle green softness. Use it in bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens, or a quiet home office where a low-contrast wall color is wanted. Pair Flagstaff Green with warm white trim, pale oak, linen upholstery, brushed nickel, or charcoal accents for a grounded palette.

Flagstaff Green is a mid-light, very muted pale khaki. The HEX sample has a subtle yellow-green bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear yellow-green. Warm light can make it look more olive and earthy, while cool daylight usually makes the green direction easier to notice.

LRV of Flagstaff Green
Flagstaff Green has an LRV of 48.94% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 48.94%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
