Eucalyptus

621

Eucalyptus is a medium green with a clear blue undertone that shifts it toward a cooled, leafy tone. It has an LRV of 42.93, placing it in the mid-range where it provides moderate light reflection without appearing too bright or too heavy. The blue content keeps the green from trending yellow-green under warm artificial light.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore Palladian Blue or Silver Sage for an analogous cool scheme. Wrought Iron and Kendall Charcoal add depth, while White Dove or Swiss Coffee serve as clean lighter accents.

Eucalyptus 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.
