Benjamin Moore

Limestone

513

Limestone is a warm neutral with visible green and brown undertones that shift depending on the light source. Under cooler daylight, the green becomes more apparent, under incandescent light, the brown warms considerably. Its LRV of 65.87 places it in the mid-light range, making it functional as a main wall color without reading too dark.

Simply White or Chantilly Lace offer clean trim contrast. Kendall Charcoal or Hale Navy work well for deeper accents. October Mist and Alexandria Beige share its earthy base and pair naturally.
