Benjamin Moore

Burgess Green

CW-485

Burgess Green is a fresh green with yellow undertones that lean warm. LRV 49.42 places it in the mid range, so it stays readable in both daylight and artificial light. It suits kitchens, offices, or family rooms that can carry a visible green.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore Swiss Coffee or Shaker Beige for warm neutrals. Georgian Green, Pleasant Valley, or Hale Navy can be used for related depth or contrast.
