Pine Mountain

N420-6

Pine Mountain is a dark gray green with a subdued pine needle undertone. It is quiet, not fresh. The color works well on cabinetry, doors, or a small den where softened black might feel too severe.

Painted out, it can absorb light, so add contrast through cream trim and pale flooring. Warm brass looks natural against it. Cool LEDs may push it closer to charcoal.
