What color is Behr Mossed Opportunity?
Behr Mossed Opportunity M400-6A is a muted medium green with an earthy olive cast and a softly grayed finish. Its moderate depth gives walls noticeable color without making a room feel overly dark, especially when paired with warm white trim. In bright natural light, Mossed Opportunity reads as a grounded green; under warmer lamps, its yellow-olive undertones become more apparent. It suits studies, mudrooms, kitchens, and covered exterior details, and can also bring character to cabinetry. Try it alongside natural oak, aged brass, clay-toned textiles, charcoal accents, or creamy off-whites.

LRV of Mossed Opportunity
Mossed Opportunity has an LRV of 22.7% 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 22.7%, 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.
