What color is Behr Rainforest?
Behr Rainforest M440-7 is a deep, muted green with a noticeable blue-gray cast that keeps it from reading overly earthy. Its low-light depth gives walls a grounded, shadowed look, while brighter daylight can bring out the cooler green notes. Use it in a study, dining room, or powder room where a darker wall color can add definition without appearing black. Rainforest also suits painted cabinetry or a front door, especially alongside warm white trim, brushed brass, pale oak, or natural linen. For contrast, pair it with soft clay, sandy beige, or a restrained blush rather than a bright, crisp white.

LRV of Rainforest
Rainforest has an LRV of 9.73% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 9.73%, 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.
