What color is Benjamin Moore Evening Grove?
Benjamin Moore Evening Grove 1526 is a muted olive-brown with a noticeable gray cast, giving it an earthy, low-saturation appearance. Its #6F664E value reads as a medium-deep shade that can feel more olive in warm light and more restrained, almost weathered, in cooler daylight. Use it on a study, dining room, or mudroom wall when a pale neutral would feel too plain. Evening Grove also has enough depth for cabinetry or built-in shelving, especially alongside creamy off-whites, aged brass, natural oak, and charcoal accents. Pair it with linen upholstery, leather, or warm stone finishes to bring out its grounded green-brown character.

LRV of Evening Grove
Evening Grove has an LRV of 13.72% 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 13.72%, 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.
