What color is Benjamin Moore Great Barrington Green?

Benjamin Moore Great Barrington Green HC-122 is a muted, mid-depth green with a noticeable gray cast and earthy yellow-olive undertones. Its softened saturation keeps it from reading bright, giving walls a grounded, natural look that feels especially at home beside wood, stone, and aged brass. In sunlit rooms, Great Barrington Green can show more of its dry olive character, while lower or cooler light brings forward its quieter gray-green side. Use it on a study, mudroom, kitchen cabinetry, or exterior trim when you want color with substance but not a sharply dramatic finish. Creamy off-whites, warm taupes, charcoal accents, and medium oak are all fitting companions for this shade.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 21.39%, 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.
