Benjamin Moore

Fresh Dew

435

Fresh Dew is a soft green-gray with subtle sage undertones that keep it from reading too cool or too warm. With an LRV of 72.82, this light shade reflects considerable ambient light and suits living rooms, bedrooms, and kitchens where a calm, neutral backdrop is needed. The gray component prevents the green from becoming too saturated.

Fresh Dew works naturally with Benjamin Moore White Dove, Edgecomb Gray, and Gray Owl for neutral layering, while Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal provide grounding contrast, and Pale Avocado offers analogous green harmony.

Fresh Dew 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.
