What color is Little Greene Clay - Mid?

Little Greene Clay - Mid 153 is a pale, softened beige with a clear warm cream cast. Its low saturation keeps it from reading overly yellow, giving walls a lightly weathered, natural-looking finish instead. In bright daylight, Clay - Mid appears airy and chalky, while evening light brings out its warmer biscuit notes. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a gentle neutral is needed without the starkness of white. Pair it with off-white trim, honey-toned timber, linen upholstery, and muted olive or earthy brown accents for a grounded scheme.

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 72.54%, 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.
