What color is Benjamin Moore Rainy Afternoon?
Benjamin Moore Rainy Afternoon 1575 is a muted, medium-dark green-gray with a soft olive cast. Its restrained saturation keeps it earthy rather than overtly green, giving walls a grounded, shaded appearance. In bright daylight, the gray aspect is more noticeable; lower or warmer light can bring out its subtle mossy undertone. Use it in a study, dining room, mudroom, or on kitchen cabinetry where a deeper neutral adds definition without reading black. Pair Rainy Afternoon with warm off-whites, natural oak, aged brass, charcoal textiles, and pale stone for a layered, material-focused interior.

LRV of Rainy Afternoon
Rainy Afternoon has an LRV of 15.2% 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 15.2%, 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.
