What color is Benjamin Moore Louisburg Green?

Benjamin Moore Louisburg Green HC-113 is a muted, medium-light green with a noticeable gray cast and a soft olive undertone. Its low saturation keeps it from reading bright or leafy, giving walls a quiet, weathered look instead. In daylight, the green comes forward gently, while lower or warmer artificial light can make the shade appear more khaki-gray. Louisburg Green suits studies, mudrooms, kitchens, and exterior siding where a grounded color feels appropriate without becoming too dark. Pair it with warm white trim, aged brass, natural oak, slate, or charcoal accents for a layered, earthy palette.

What are Benjamin Moore Louisburg Green undertones?

Louisburg Green reads as a mid-light, muted yellow-green with a soft gray cast rather than a bright or leafy green. The supplied digital color leans yellow overall, with a slight green bias that keeps it firmly in the green family. Benjamin Moore describes gray undertones that give this medium green a cool, muted quality; visually, that gray influence reduces the color’s saturation and makes its yellow-green base look more restrained. Warm artificial light may bring out more of its yellowed olive side, while cool daylight can make the gray-green aspect appear clearer.

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 33.79%, 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.
