Alfalfa Extract

M380-7

A sample of Alfalfa Extract should be judged as olive green, because yellow-green warmth is part of the color. A shaded wall may make Alfalfa Extract feel heavier than the chip suggests. The color needs context from warm marble, especially in changing light.

Stone can steady it. Use Alfalfa Extract near a compact entry only after the trim proves friendly to mossy yellow in the base. The safest trim choice comes after checking black hardware beside the board.

Alfalfa Extract 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.
