What color is Farrow and Ball Cooking Apple Green?
Farrow and Ball Cooking Apple Green 32 is a light, muted green with a noticeable grey cast and a soft yellow-olive undertone. Its low saturation keeps it gentle rather than bright, giving walls a quietly aged, chalky appearance. In daylight, the green reads clearer and fresher, while lower or warmer light can bring forward its subdued khaki notes. It suits kitchens, utility rooms, and garden-facing spaces especially well, and can also make painted cabinetry feel lighter without turning crisp or stark. Pair it with warm off-whites, natural oak, woven textures, or dark bronze hardware for a grounded finish.

What are Farrow and Ball Cooking Apple Green undertones?
Cooking Apple Green reads as a mid-light, muted yellow-green, with low saturation that keeps it soft rather than vivid. In the supplied digital sample, its relative bias is toward yellow, while a gentle green cast remains part of the overall color family; this is an observation of the sample rather than a claim about the paint formula. The official content provided names the colour but does not describe an undertone. Warm artificial light may bring forward its yellow cast, while cool daylight may make the green aspect more noticeable, depending on the room and surrounding surfaces.

LRV of Cooking Apple Green
Cooking Apple Green has an LRV of 53.69% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 53.69%, 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.
