What color is Benjamin Moore Cat's Eye?
Benjamin Moore Cat's Eye 2036-10 is a deep, saturated green with a clear cool cast and enough blue influence to keep it from reading earthy or olive. Its medium-dark value gives it strong presence on cabinetry, a front door, or a compact powder room where a bolder color can feel intentional. In bright daylight, Cat's Eye shows its clean green character, while lower light brings out its shadowy, forest-like depth. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale gray stone, black hardware, or warm natural oak for contrast. On larger walls, use it where the room has reliable light or balance it with lighter furnishings and finishes.
LRV of Cat's Eye
Cat's Eye has an LRV of 13.12% 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 13.12%, 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.
