Glen Ridge Gold

301

Glen Ridge Gold is a saturated yellow with amber undertones that deepen its warmth beyond a typical primary yellow. At an LRV of 44.9, it offers mid-range brightness suitable for kitchens or dining areas where warm tones are appropriate. The amber influence prevents it from appearing too sharp or acidic.

This color coordinates well with Benjamin Moore Hale Navy and Black Forest Green for contrast, while Rich Cream and Weston Flax provide analogous warmth. White Dove serves as an effective neutral trim option.

Glen Ridge Gold 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.
