What color is Benjamin Moore Levingston Green?
Benjamin Moore Levingston Green CW-490 is a pale, muted green with a noticeable yellow-gray cast that keeps it soft rather than minty. Its light value makes it especially useful for walls in kitchens, breakfast rooms, bedrooms, or hallways where a gentle wash of color is wanted without making the room feel dark. In bright daylight, Levingston Green can read as a lightly weathered green, while lower or warmer artificial light may bring forward its subdued khaki undertone. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, woven grasses, and aged brass for a grounded, material-rich look. For more contrast, this shade also sits well beside charcoal, deep olive, or muted terracotta accents.

LRV of Levingston Green
Levingston Green has an LRV of 57.79% and refers to Light colors that reflect most 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 57.79%, 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.
