Benjamin Moore

Carried Away

849

Carried Away is a very light green with cool undertones and a clean, airy appearance. The LRV of 79.26 means high reflectance, so it brightens smaller rooms and reads near-pastel. It suits bathrooms, nurseries, and ceilings where a soft green tint is acceptable.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore White Dove or Balboa Mist for a restrained neutral scheme. Sea Foam or Arctic Blue keep the palette cool, while Forest Floor or Hunter Green add depth.

Carried Away 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.
