What color is Little Greene Slaked Lime - Dark?

Little Greene Slaked Lime - Dark 151 is a muted, mid-tone neutral with a soft beige base and noticeable grey-khaki undertones. Its subdued saturation keeps it from reading overly creamy or yellow, giving walls a gently weathered, mineral-like appearance. In bright daylight, this shade can appear lighter and more stone-like, while lower or warmer light brings out its earthy beige character. Use Slaked Lime - Dark on living room, hallway, or bedroom walls where a grounded neutral is wanted without the starkness of pale grey. It pairs well with off-white trim, natural oak, aged brass, linen upholstery, and deeper brown or olive accents.

What are Little Greene Slaked Lime - Dark undertones?

This is a mid-light, muted yellow-beige with a soft, low-saturation overall character. It reads mainly as a warm, natural beige rather than a strong cream or yellow, with a slight yellow bias in the supplied digital sample. Because no official undertone description is available here, that bias should be treated as an observation of the displayed color rather than a confirmed paint-formula undertone. Warm artificial light may bring out more of its yellow-beige cast, while cool daylight can make it appear a little more neutral and subdued.

LRV of Slaked Lime - Dark

Slaked Lime - Dark has an LRV of 44.89% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 44.89%, 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.
