What color is RAL Classic Grass green?

RAL Classic Grass green RAL 6010 is a muted, medium-dark green with an earthy yellow-green cast rather than a crisp blue-green edge. Its restrained saturation gives it a practical, grounded look that suits garden-facing exteriors, utility rooms, mudrooms, and painted cabinetry. In daylight, this color reads as a clear natural green; under lower or warmer artificial light, it can appear deeper and more olive. Pair Grass green with warm off-whites, putty neutrals, terracotta tile, natural oak, or blackened metal for a firmly edited palette. On large walls, use it where the room has reasonable daylight, while on doors, trim, or cabinets it provides a stronger block of color without overwhelming the space.

LRV of Grass green

Grass green has an LRV of 15.18% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 15.18%, 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.
