Benjamin Moore

Tate Olive

HC-112

Tate Olive (BM) is a deep, muted green-brown with warm undertones that push it toward an earthy, yellow-green read on the wall. Its LRV of 21.63 means it absorbs a significant amount of light and will darken a room noticeably, particularly in north-facing spaces. The color sits in a range between olive and khaki, with enough green saturation to read distinctly from neutral browns.

It pairs effectively with Benjamin Moore's White Dove, Edgecomb Gray, Hale Navy, New London Burgundy, and Saybrook Sage for layered or contrasting palettes.
