Benjamin Moore

Homestead

CC-724 / 474

Homestead is a herbaceous green with gray undertones that produce a muted, earthy appearance. With an LRV of 30.16, it falls in the lower-mid range, offering moderate depth suitable for living rooms, kitchens, or home offices where grounded warmth is desired. The gray content prevents the green from appearing too bright or grassy.

Benjamin Moore Shaker Beige and Grant Beige complement its earthy character, while Bravado Red and Hale Navy provide contrast. Quiet Moments offers a softer blue-green for tonal harmony.

Homestead 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.
