What color is Behr Park Bench?
Behr Park Bench M430-6 is a mid-depth green with a softened blue-gray cast that keeps it from reading too bright or leafy. Its muted saturation gives walls a grounded, natural look, while the cool undertone is especially noticeable in clear daylight. In warmer artificial light, Park Bench can appear a little more olive and subdued. It suits studies, bedrooms, mudrooms, and painted cabinetry, particularly alongside warm white trim, pale oak, matte black hardware, or aged brass. For contrast, pair this shade with clay-toned accents or a dusty blush textile rather than crisp, high-chroma colors.

LRV of Park Bench
Park Bench has an LRV of 16.26% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 16.26%, 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.
