What color is Benjamin Moore Pine Brook?
Benjamin Moore Pine Brook 490 is a muted olive green with a noticeable gray cast, giving it a grounded, mid-depth appearance. The #6E7450 color value suggests an earthy yellow-green undertone rather than a bright botanical green. In daylight, Pine Brook can read as a softened mossy green, while lower or cooler light may bring out its more reserved gray-olive side. It has enough depth for cabinetry, a library, or an exterior door, yet can also create a cocooning effect on dining room or den walls. Pair it with warm off-whites, aged brass, natural oak, leather, and stone finishes to emphasize its organic character.

LRV of Pine Brook
Pine Brook has an LRV of 17.55% 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 17.55%, 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.
