Cabin Fever

1540

Cabin Fever is a deep green-brown with warm undertones. With an LRV of 13.5, it reads dark and dense on walls. It suits studies, dining rooms, or built-ins where low reflectance is acceptable.

Combine it with Benjamin Moore Shaker Beige or Revere Pewter for softer neutrals. Black Forest Green, Kendall Charcoal, or White Dove provide deeper or lighter contrast. In warmer light, the undertone stays present and the color can deepen slightly.

Cabin Fever 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.
