Green Meadows

2040-20

Green Meadows is a deep, cool green with blue undertones that create a forest-like appearance. With an LRV of 11.43, this is a dark color that absorbs significant light and functions best on accent walls, in powder rooms, or spaces with adequate illumination. The cool undertones prevent it from reading as olive or khaki.

This shade coordinates well with Benjamin Moore White Dove for contrast on trim and ceilings, Revere Pewter for a softer transition, Hale Navy for a coordinated deep palette, Vintage Wine for complementary richness, and Rosemary Green for an analogous green scheme.
