What color is Benjamin Moore Lilianna?
Benjamin Moore Lilianna CSP-855 is a muted yellow-green with an olive cast, reading like softened moss mixed with aged straw. Its medium-light depth keeps it present on the wall without becoming overly bright, while the grayed quality tempers its warmth. In sunnier rooms, Lilianna can show more of its golden yellow side; under dimmer or cooler light, the olive and khaki notes become more noticeable. It suits kitchens, mudrooms, garden-facing living spaces, or painted cabinetry where an earthy color can add character. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, woven fibers, matte black hardware, or deep brown accents for a grounded finish.

LRV of Lilianna
Lilianna has an LRV of 44.47% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half 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 44.47%, 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.
