Cedar Ridge

1233

Cedar Ridge is a warm foggy neutral with subtle red undertones that add a muted brown cast. An LRV of 47.82 gives it mid-level reflectance and a soft, balanced read. It works in living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a warm neutral is required.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore Shaker Beige or Muslin for a related range, and use Cloud White or Simply White on trim. Hale Navy or Salamander add deeper contrast.

Cedar Ridge 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.
