What color is Benjamin Moore Raleigh Green?
Benjamin Moore Raleigh Green CW-525 is a muted, medium-depth green with a lightly cool cast and a softened, natural look. Its restrained saturation keeps it from feeling overly leafy or bright, making it a strong option for full walls in a study, mudroom, or dining room. In clear daylight, Raleigh Green reads as a balanced green with subtle blue-gray influence, while warm evening lighting can bring out a slightly earthier character. Pair it with warm white trim, charcoal accents, natural oak, or aged brass for contrast that feels grounded rather than sharp. It also has enough depth for painted cabinetry or a front door when a dark neutral would feel too severe.

LRV of Raleigh Green
Raleigh Green has an LRV of 19.37% 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 19.37%, 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.
