What color is Behr Gallery Green?
Behr Gallery Green S400-5 is a softened mid-tone green with a noticeable gray cast that keeps it muted rather than leafy or bright. Its color value, #88a385, reads as a gentle sage-green, with just enough warmth to avoid looking icy. In bright daylight, Gallery Green can appear cleaner and slightly fresher, while lower or warmer light brings out its dusty, subdued quality. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and living-room walls where a quiet natural color is wanted without a dark or dramatic effect. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, linen upholstery, matte black hardware, or clay-toned accents for an earthy, grounded palette.

LRV of Gallery Green
Gallery Green has an LRV of 31.35% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 31.35%, 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.
