Benjamin Moore

Country Comfort

305 / CC-212

Country Comfort by Benjamin Moore is a warm, saturated yellow with noticeable orange undertones that push it toward a golden tone. It registers an LRV of 66.95, placing it in the mid-to-high reflectance range while still reading as a definite color on the wall rather than a tinted neutral. The orange influence gives it more depth than a standard yellow and makes it particularly suited to kitchens and dining rooms.

It coordinates well with Benjamin Moore White Down for a lighter surround and Chestertown Buff for an earthy, tonal pairing. For stronger contrast, Hale Navy works effectively, while Pale Moon can soften the overall palette.

Country Comfort 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.
