What color is Benjamin Moore Croquet?
Benjamin Moore Croquet AF-455 is a muted yellow-green with a substantial gray cast, giving it the look of softened olive leaves rather than a bright botanical green. Its medium-light depth keeps walls from feeling heavy, while the low saturation makes it especially easy to live with across larger areas. In daylight, Croquet can read as a dusty sage-olive; under warm evening lighting, its earthy yellow undertone becomes more noticeable. It suits kitchens, mudrooms, dining rooms, and built-in cabinetry where a grounded color is wanted without the darkness of a deeper olive. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, aged brass, linen upholstery, and charcoal or deep brown accents for contrast.
LRV of Croquet
Croquet has an LRV of 45.02% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 45.02%, 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.
