What color is Benjamin Moore Erin Green?
Benjamin Moore Erin Green 608 is a vivid blue-green with a clean teal cast and substantial saturation. Its medium depth keeps it from reading pastel, while the #00917A value gives it a crisp, energetic presence on walls or painted millwork. In bright daylight, Erin Green can appear clearer and more turquoise; lower or warmer light may bring out a deeper green-teal look. It makes a strong choice for a powder room, kitchen island, built-in shelving, or a front door where a concentrated color feels intentional. Pair it with soft white, pale gray, natural oak, warm brass, or matte black for contrast that lets the color remain the focal point.

LRV of Erin Green
Erin Green has an LRV of 23.46% 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 23.46%, 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.
