What color is Behr Moss Print?
Behr Moss Print PPU11-08 is a muted gray-green with a soft olive cast and a lightly weathered look. Its mid-light value keeps it from feeling heavy, while the yellowed green undertone gives it more warmth than a blue-based sage. In bright daylight, Moss Print can read as a gentle dusty green; under warmer bulbs, its olive and khaki notes become more apparent. It suits bedroom, living room, and home office walls, especially alongside warm white trim, natural oak, linen, and aged brass. For contrast, pair this shade with charcoal accents, deep brown wood, or a subdued clay-toned textile.

LRV of Moss Print
Moss Print has an LRV of 43.95% 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 43.95%, 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.
