What color is Benjamin Moore Tate Olive?
Benjamin Moore Tate Olive HC-112 is a muted medium-depth olive with a noticeable gray cast and softened yellow-green undertone. Its low saturation keeps it from reading like a sharp botanical green, giving the color a weathered, earthy appearance instead. In bright daylight, Tate Olive can appear lighter and a little more khaki; under warm evening bulbs, its olive warmth becomes more apparent. It is especially effective on kitchen cabinetry, library walls, mudroom built-ins, or a front door where a grounded color is welcome. Pair it with warm white trim, aged brass, natural oak, blackened metal, and stone finishes with beige or gray variation.

LRV of Tate Olive
Tate Olive has an LRV of 21.63% 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 21.63%, 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.
