Behr

Chelsea Garden

MQ6-39

Chelsea Garden reads deep green-gray with a muted teal undertone, grounded enough for cabinets or exterior trim. Dim rooms may show slate first before the green appears. Daylight brings out the green on broad surfaces.

A small office can take it with good task lighting. Pale counters or warm white trim keep it legible. Satin finish is smart for doors and built-ins because the depth can look flat in matte paint. The green stays cool.

Chelsea Garden in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
