Benjamin Moore

Forest Green

2047-10

Forest Green is a deep, saturated green with cool undertones and strong color presence. With an LRV of 7.58, it reflects minimal light and creates substantial visual weight, making it appropriate for accent walls, cabinetry, or smaller rooms like powder rooms and studies. The cool base prevents it from reading muddy or overly warm.

This shade coordinates with Benjamin Moore White Dove, Classic Gray, Newburg Green, and deep jewel tones, working well in traditional or contemporary settings that can support its depth.
