Benjamin Moore

Bavarian Forest

2054-10

Bavarian Forest is a very dark green with cool undertones that keep it deep. Its LRV of 6.66 indicates very low reflectance, so it reads near-black on walls. Warm light brings the green undertone forward slightly.

It is suitable for libraries, dining rooms, or accent walls where a deep green is needed. Pair it with White Dove and Simply White for contrast, and add Aegean Teal or Dinner Party for coordination.
