What color is Dulux Rosemary Leaf?

Dulux Rosemary Leaf 50GG 40/064 is a muted grey-green with a soft, mid-tone presence and a noticeable cool cast. Its low-key saturation keeps the green from feeling sharp, giving walls a gently weathered, mineral-like look. In bright daylight, the grey aspect is likely to come forward, while warmer artificial lighting can make its green character appear a little more apparent. Use it in a kitchen on cabinetry with pale oak, brushed nickel, or honed stone, or carry it across a study or hallway for more colour than a standard neutral. Crisp off-whites, charcoal details, and natural linen all provide clear, grounded companions for Rosemary Leaf.

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 36.94%, 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.
