Cambridge Green

468 / HC-126

Cambridge Green is an earthy green with a muted gray undertone. With an LRV of 20.99, it sits in the dark mid-tone range. It suits living rooms, studies, or dining areas where a grounded green is needed.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore White Dove or Simply White for clean contrast. Edgecomb Gray, Kendall Charcoal, or Hale Navy provide deeper structure. In mixed lighting, the undertone remains visible and the color does not wash out.

Cambridge Green in Different Light
