Benjamin Moore

Hollingsworth Green

HC-141

Hollingsworth Green is a pale, desaturated green with a subtle gray undertone that gives it a silvery quality. With an LRV of 63.25, it reflects a good amount of light while maintaining color presence, making it suitable for bedrooms, sunrooms, or entryways where brightness without starkness is needed. The cool gray cast keeps the green from appearing too yellow or earthy.

Benjamin Moore White Dove and Natural Cream pair well as warm neutrals, while Hale Navy provides contrast and dusty sage tones create cohesion.
