Summer Basket Green

2040-40

Summer Basket Green is a muted jade green with cool undertones and moderate saturation. An LRV of 32.79 gives it enough depth to anchor a space without becoming heavy. It works well in living rooms and bedrooms across both modern and traditional settings.

The undertone remains consistent. Summer Basket Green pairs easily with Benjamin Moore White Dove and Pale Oak, while Hale Navy and Kendall Charcoal add contrast. Breath of Fresh Air supports lighter, related tones.
