Mohegan Sage

2138-30

Mohegan Sage is a dark green-gray with warm brown undertones that temper its cooler green base. With an LRV of 12.37, it absorbs most light and works best in well-lit rooms or as an accent. The warm undertone prevents it from reading as cold or industrial, instead giving it an organic, earth-toned character.

The green component becomes more apparent in daylight, while artificial light draws out the brown. It pairs with Revere Pewter and Pale Oak for lighter wall-to-wall transitions, and sits well beside Tate Olive and Dakota Shadow in nature-derived schemes. White Dove provides clean trim contrast.

Mohegan Sage 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.
