What color is Little Greene Tracery II?

Little Greene Tracery II 78 is a muted, light mid-tone with a soft olive-grey cast and a noticeable yellowed undertone. Its low saturation keeps it understated on broad walls, where it reads as a gently weathered neutral rather than a distinct green. In cooler daylight, Tracery II can appear more grey and restrained, while warm lamps bring forward its earthy, khaki-like warmth. It suits studies, hallways, kitchens, and living rooms that need more depth than an off-white without moving into a dark shade. Pair it with chalky whites, warm stone, aged brass, natural oak, and linen upholstery, or use it on cabinetry for a quiet contrast against pale walls.

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 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.
