Pinelands

446

Pinelands is a deep forest green with cool, slightly gray undertones that give it a grounded appearance. Its low LRV of 21.25 means it absorbs light and reads best in spaces with adequate illumination. The depth suits libraries, dining rooms, and bedrooms where a darker envelope is appropriate.

It pairs cleanly with White Dove and Classic Gray for balance. Hale Navy and Kendall Charcoal reinforce the depth, while Fernwood Green offers a softer transition.

Pinelands 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.
