Hidden Falls

714

Hidden Falls is an ultra-dark green distinguished by prominent blue-green undertones. With an LRV of 8.59, this color absorbs significant light and reads as a deep, saturated shade that works well on accent walls or in smaller spaces like reading nooks. The cool blue-green cast gives it a grounded, natural quality.

For balance, this color pairs effectively with lighter neutrals such as Benjamin Moore White Dove and Chantilly Lace, while Chelsea Gray, Wrought Iron, and Van Deusen Blue offer tonal coordination that emphasizes its depth.
