What color is Benjamin Moore Green Meadows?

Benjamin Moore Green Meadows 2040-20 is a deep, saturated green with a noticeable blue-teal cast that keeps it from reading like a traditional forest green. Its low brightness gives walls real presence, especially in a dining room, study, powder room, or entryway where a darker color can feel intentional. In bright daylight, Green Meadows shows more of its clear blue-green character, while lower light draws out its shadowy depth. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, natural cane, or aged brass to bring contrast against its cool lean. It also makes a strong choice for painted cabinetry or a front door when you want color that feels rich without turning nearly black.

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 11.43%, 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.
