What color is Benjamin Moore Avon Green?

Benjamin Moore Avon Green HC-126 is a muted green with a noticeable gray cast and a gentle olive lean. Its mid-depth value gives it enough presence for cabinetry or an exterior door, while the softened saturation keeps it from reading too bold on walls. In brighter daylight, Avon Green can appear cleaner and slightly cooler; under warm artificial light, its earthy green-gray side becomes more apparent. Pair it with creamy off-whites, weathered wood, aged brass, or charcoal accents for a grounded, layered look. It is especially well suited to mudrooms, kitchens, studies, and built-in shelving where a quiet, natural-looking color can add definition.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 20.99%, 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.
