What color is Behr Longmeadow?

Behr Longmeadow S430-5 is a muted blue-green with a soft gray cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright. Its mid-tone depth gives walls noticeable color without making a room feel dark, especially when paired with warm white trim. In daylight, Longmeadow can read as a dusty teal, while lower or warmer lighting may draw out its subdued green-gray side. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, mudrooms, or painted cabinetry, where its low saturation feels calm and practical.

LRV of Longmeadow

Longmeadow has an LRV of 25.21% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?

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 25.21%, 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.
