What color is Little Greene Nether Red?

Little Greene Nether Red 315 is a muted red with a weathered, greyed cast, sitting closer to dusty clay and softened rose than a bright traditional red. Its low saturation keeps the color grounded, while the subtle warmth prevents it from feeling cold or flat. In daylight, Nether Red can read as a restrained earthy pink-red; under warmer evening light, its brownish undertone becomes more noticeable. It suits dining rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a deeper wall color is wanted without the intensity of a pure crimson. Pair it with chalky off-whites, warm stone, aged brass, dark timber, or muted olive accents for a layered, natural-looking 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 19%, 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.
