What color is Benjamin Moore Courtyard Green?
Benjamin Moore Courtyard Green 546 is a muted olive green with a noticeable yellow cast that keeps it grounded rather than forest-dark. Its mid-depth color reads earthy on large walls, especially beside warm white trim, linen upholstery, or natural oak. In bright daylight, Courtyard Green can appear a little fresher and more botanical; lower light brings out its grayer, mossy side. It suits a study, mudroom, kitchen cabinetry, or a covered exterior door where its subdued saturation won’t feel overly bold. Pair it with creamy off-whites, aged brass, terracotta tile, and charcoal accents for a layered, material-focused palette.

LRV of Courtyard Green
Courtyard Green has an LRV of 21.3% 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 21.3%, 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.
