Benjamin Moore

Honeydew

549

Honeydew is a light green with cool undertones that give it a fresh, clean quality. At an LRV of 66.31, it reflects light well while maintaining visible color, making it appropriate for bedrooms and bathrooms where a calming green presence is desired. The cool base distinguishes it from yellow-greens.

Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace and Simply White pair well for a crisp combination, Forest Floor provides green depth, and Tranquil Blue, Brittany Blue, and Palladian Blue offer analogous cool-toned options.

Honeydew 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.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
