What color is Benjamin Moore Medici Malachite?

Benjamin Moore Medici Malachite 600 is a mid-tone green with a noticeable blue cast, giving it the look of softened teal rather than a yellow-based botanical green. Its moderate saturation keeps the color present on a full wall without becoming overly bright, while the grayed quality helps it feel grounded. In daylight, Medici Malachite can show its clearer blue-green side; warmer artificial lighting may draw out a slightly greener impression. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, and dining rooms, as well as painted cabinetry or a statement front door. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, natural linen, brushed brass, or deep charcoal for contrast.

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 32.84%, 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.
