Colony Green

694

Colony Green is a light pistachio green with a soft green undertone and low chroma. Its LRV of 65.82 keeps it bright but not white. It works in kitchens, bedrooms, or bathrooms where a pale green is desired.

Soft Fern and Healing Aloe build an analogous range. White Dove keeps trim clean, while Hale Navy or Wrought Iron add contrast.

Colony Green 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.
