Benjamin Moore

Safari

AF-335

Safari is a sandy yellow with soft orange undertones and an LRV of 64.03, making it a high-reflectance color that amplifies available light and keeps rooms feeling open. The orange base prevents it from reading as a stark or clinical yellow, pulling it into warmer territory. It performs consistently in both north-facing and south-facing exposures, though it will appear richer under warm lighting.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore White Sand for a near-tonal companion, Newburg Green for complementary contrast, Chelsea Gray for a cool grounding accent, Hawthorne Yellow for analogous continuity, and Stone House for a neutral warm bridge.

Safari 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.
