What color is Benjamin Moore Medieval Times?
Benjamin Moore Medieval Times 530 is a muted yellow-green with an earthy olive cast and a softly weathered look. Its medium-light depth keeps it noticeable on walls without feeling overly saturated, especially in rooms with natural wood or stone. In warm afternoon light, the yellow side comes forward; under cooler lighting, it can read more subdued and gray-green. Medieval Times suits kitchens, mudrooms, studies, or garden-facing bedrooms, where its organic tone can connect indoor finishes to the landscape outside. Pair it with warm white trim, aged brass, oak, flax-colored linen, or deep brown accents for a grounded palette.

LRV of Medieval Times
Medieval Times has an LRV of 33.53% and refers to Medium 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 33.53%, 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.
