Benjamin Moore

Limon

334

Limon is a saturated, warm yellow with a slight golden undertone that keeps it from veering into cool or acidic territory. It holds its warmth across different lighting conditions, though it can intensify in direct sunlight. With an LRV of 73.73, it reflects a substantial amount of light while maintaining strong color presence.

Lemon Sorbet and Yellow Lotus complement it within the same tonal family. Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal supply the contrast needed to keep it grounded. Simply White or Chantilly Lace work as clean trim pairings.

Limon 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.
