Benjamin Moore

Spring Valley

438

Spring Valley is a chalky, mid-range green that leans toward gray in its undertones, giving it a muted, dusty quality rather than a saturated leaf tone. At an LRV of 55.73, it reflects a moderate amount of light and reads as a true mid-value on the wall. The gray base keeps it from skewing too warm or too cool, making it relatively stable under different lighting conditions.

It sits comfortably alongside Benjamin Moore Fernwood Green, Saybrook Sage, and Edgecomb Gray, and can be trimmed with White Dove or anchored by a deeper tone like Kendall Charcoal.

Spring Valley 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.
