Benjamin Moore

Louisburg Green

HC-113

Louisburg Green is a muted, medium-depth green with noticeable gray undertones that pull it toward sage territory. At an LRV of 33.79, it absorbs more light than it reflects, giving it a subdued, earthy presence on the wall. It works well alongside Classic Gray or Horizon for a quiet, low-contrast pairing.

Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal bring definition and depth when used on accents or trim. Palladian Blue offers a complementary cool-toned companion that shares its restrained intensity.

Louisburg Green 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.
