What color is Behr Greenwich Village?

Behr Greenwich Village N440-3 is a light, muted blue-green gray with a distinctly cool cast and soft, low-saturation appearance. Its gentle green-blue undertone is most noticeable in daylight, while warmer bulbs can make it read closer to a calm silvery gray. Use it on bedroom, bathroom, or home office walls where a pale color with more character than standard gray is wanted. Greenwich Village pairs neatly with crisp white trim, weathered oak, brushed nickel, charcoal accents, and soft linen textiles. It can also suit painted cabinetry in a bright kitchen or laundry room, especially alongside pale stone counters and matte black hardware.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 49.18%, 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.
