Benjamin Moore

Sussex Green

HC-109

Sussex Green is a muted olive green with brown undertones that give it an earthy base. With an LRV of 20.85, it reads as a dark, subdued shade. It works well in living rooms, dining rooms, and libraries.

The undertones prevent it from appearing sharp or cool. It pairs effectively with Benjamin Moore White Dove and Classic Gray, while Hale Navy and New London Burgundy add contrast.
