What color is Benjamin Moore Weekend Getaway?

Benjamin Moore Weekend Getaway 473 is a muted green-gray with a soft, earthy cast that keeps it from reading too cool or too yellow. Its mid-light depth gives walls noticeable color while maintaining a quiet, low-saturation look. In brighter daylight, the green undertone is clearer; under warm evening bulbs, it can lean more toward softened olive-gray. Use it in a mudroom, bedroom, or dining area with warm white trim, natural oak, woven textures, and aged brass. It also makes a grounded cabinet color beside pale stone counters or creamy beige tile.

LRV of Weekend Getaway

Weekend Getaway has an LRV of 38.79% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 38.79%, 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.
