What color is Benjamin Moore Lido Green?
Benjamin Moore Lido Green 617 is a pale, lightly muted green with a soft mint cast and a clean, airy appearance. Its high lightness keeps it gentle on broad walls, while the subtle coolness helps brighten rooms that receive warm afternoon sun. In cooler or shaded light, Lido Green may read a touch crisper and more blue-green. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, laundry rooms, and painted ceilings where a faint wash of color is wanted instead of a strong statement. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, natural linen, or matte nickel fixtures to keep the finish grounded and fresh.

LRV of Lido Green
Lido Green has an LRV of 75.77% and refers to Off‑White 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 75.77%, 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.
