What color is Benjamin Moore Olive Branch?
Benjamin Moore Olive Branch 2143-30 is a muted olive with a softened yellow-beige cast that keeps it grounded rather than overtly green. Its mid-tone depth gives walls noticeable color without making a room feel dark, especially when paired with warm white trim. In bright daylight, Olive Branch can read more khaki and golden; lower or cooler light brings out its dustier green side. It suits kitchens, studies, mudrooms, and dining spaces, and has enough presence for painted cabinetry or a single accent wall. Try it with creamy off-whites, weathered oak, aged brass, charcoal accents, and natural linen for a layered, earthy interior.
LRV of Olive Branch
Olive Branch has an LRV of 32.85% 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 32.85%, 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.
