Benjamin Moore

Southfield Green

HC-129

Southfield Green sits at an LRV of 36.74, a mid-range value that keeps it from reading as either particularly light or dark. The hue is a moderately saturated green with a slight gray quality that prevents it from appearing overly bright. Cool undertones are minimal, keeping it closer to a botanical green than a blue-green.

White Dove and Simply White provide clean, high-contrast trim options. Hale Navy and Kendall Charcoal serve as deep anchors, while Fernwood Green and Saybrook Sage create an analogous grouping that extends the green range without introducing competing warmth.

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.
