What color is Behr Seaweed Salad?
Behr Seaweed Salad S370-6 is a muted, medium-depth olive with a noticeable yellow-khaki cast. Its softened green base keeps it earthy rather than bright, making it well suited to a study, dining room, mudroom, or painted built-ins. In stronger daylight, this color can read more olive-green, while lower or warmer lighting draws out its brownish, mossy side. Pair Seaweed Salad with warm white trim, aged brass, natural oak, tan leather, or charcoal accents for a grounded palette. It has enough depth to hold its own on cabinetry or an exterior front door as well as on walls.

LRV of Seaweed Salad
Seaweed Salad has an LRV of 18.7% 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 18.7%, 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.
