What color is Little Greene Attic II?

Little Greene Attic II 144 is a deep, muted brown-grey with a softly earthy cast. Its low saturation keeps the color grounded rather than overly brown, while the warmth in the base prevents it from reading as a flat charcoal. In bright daylight, Attic II can appear like a weathered warm grey; under lamps or in north-facing rooms, it settles into a darker, more enveloping brown. It is particularly effective on cabinetry, library walls, dining rooms, or exterior woodwork where its depth can define architectural details. Pair it with chalky off-whites, aged brass, natural oak, linen, and stone for a restrained, material-led scheme.

What are Little Greene Attic II undertones?

Attic II is a deep, very muted earthy, slightly muddy brown. The HEX sample has a subtle yellow-orange bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear yellow-orange. Warm bulbs can make it look creamier or more golden, while cool daylight may mute that warmth and pull it closer to beige or greige.

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 8.93%, 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.
