Forest Hills Green

433

Forest Hills Green is a medium-depth avocado green with golden undertones that add warmth to its base. The LRV of 27.13 places it in the mid-range, offering moderate reflectivity while retaining color saturation. The gold influence keeps the green from reading too cool and gives it an organic, grounded quality.

This shade suits living rooms, dining areas, and kitchens where an earthy green is appropriate. It pairs with Benjamin Moore White Dove, Simply White, Hale Navy, Kendall Charcoal, and Hawthorne Yellow.

Forest Hills 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.
