What color is Behr Woodland Sage?
Behr Woodland Sage HDC-NT-01 is a muted, mid-light gray-green with a noticeable soft olive cast. Its low saturation keeps it quiet and earthy rather than strongly green, while the slightly yellowed base gives it gentle warmth. In daylight, Woodland Sage can read as a weathered green-gray; under warmer indoor bulbs, its khaki and beige notes become more apparent. It suits bedrooms, living rooms, and mudrooms where a grounded wall color is wanted without making the room feel dark. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, linen upholstery, charcoal accents, or aged brass for a cohesive, material-focused look.

LRV of Woodland Sage
Woodland Sage has an LRV of 36.02% 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 36.02%, 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.
