Benjamin Moore

Richmond Green

553

Richmond Green is a saturated grassy green with cool undertones, sitting at an LRV of 24.32, which makes it a darker, light-absorbing shade that produces a concentrated effect on walls. The color has noticeable blue-green depth rather than a yellow-green cast, giving it a dense, leafy character. It works alongside Benjamin Moore Simply White for sharp value contrast, Chantilly Lace for a brighter trim option, Hale Navy as a tonal deep-blue complement, Gray Owl to soften adjacent surfaces, and Chestertown Buff to introduce a warm counterpoint in the same space.
