Softened Green has an LRV of 49.24% 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).

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.
