Savannah Moss

385

Savannah Moss is a yellow-green with earthy undertones and an LRV of 31.99, placing it in the lower-mid reflectance range. Its green component is secondary to a dominant warm yellow-gold cast, giving it a muted, organic appearance rather than a vivid green read. Under artificial light it tends to lean warmer, while daylight reveals more of the green undertone.

It coordinates with Benjamin Moore Saybrook Sage, Oak Grove, Hale Navy, High Park, and Kendall Charcoal, supporting natural palettes and providing contrast when paired with deep cool tones.

Savannah Moss 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.
