Benjamin Moore

San Fernando Sunshine

360

San Fernando Sunshine is a saturated, warm yellow with an LRV of 75.35, indicating strong light reflectance that keeps the color from feeling heavy on large surfaces. Its undertones are distinctly golden with minimal green influence, so it maintains clarity without turning chartreuse. In artificial light it may deepen to a richer amber cast.

Benjamin Moore White Dove softens it as a trim pairing, while Manchester Tan provides a muted transition tone. Hale Navy delivers direct complementary contrast, and Saybrook Sage or Green Grove can cool the overall palette when used on adjacent surfaces.

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.
