Benjamin Moore

Goldenhurst

196

Goldenhurst is a saturated ochre shade with brown undertones that deepen its overall appearance. With an LRV of 25.12, this color absorbs significant light, creating a grounded, enveloping effect best suited for living rooms, dining areas, or studies where warmth and intimacy are desired. The brown influence keeps the yellow from appearing too bright, resulting in an earthy mid-tone.

Compatible Benjamin Moore colors include Hale Navy and Hunter Green for contrast, while White Dove, Swiss Coffee, and Hawthorne Yellow offer softer coordination.
