What color is Benjamin Moore Newt Green?
Benjamin Moore Newt Green 2149-10 is a muted, medium-deep olive green with noticeable yellow-brown undertones. Its earthy cast keeps it from reading bright or leafy, giving walls a grounded, slightly weathered appearance. In bright daylight, the yellow in the color becomes more apparent, while lower or warmer light can pull it toward a deeper olive-brown. Newt Green is especially effective on cabinetry, a study wall, mudroom built-ins, or an exterior door where its depth has room to register. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm putty neutrals, black hardware, natural oak, and aged brass for a material-rich finish.

LRV of Newt Green
Newt Green has an LRV of 19.61% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 19.61%, 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.
