What color is Farrow and Ball Green Smoke?
Farrow and Ball Green Smoke 47 is a muted, mid-depth green with a strong grey cast and a faint earthy olive note. Its low saturation keeps the color restrained rather than leafy or bright, giving walls a softened, chalky-looking presence. In brighter light, Green Smoke reads as a quiet grey-green; in lower light, its deeper, smokier character becomes more apparent. It suits studies, dining rooms, hallways, and painted cabinetry, especially alongside warm off-whites, aged brass, natural oak, and linen fabrics. Use it where a grounded green is wanted without the sharpness of a more saturated botanical shade.
LRV of Green Smoke
Green Smoke has an LRV of 18.93% 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 18.93%, 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.
