Benjamin Moore

Urban Nature

AF-440

Urban Nature from Benjamin Moore is a mid-tone green with yellow undertones and an LRV of 44.14, giving it a warm, muted appearance that avoids reading as sharp or acidic. The yellow base softens the green, pushing it toward a sage-olive range rather than a true or cool green. It reflects a moderate amount of light, functioning comfortably on full walls in rooms with average natural light.

Coordinating colors include White Dove, Manchester Tan, Hale Navy, Saybrook Sage, and Nantucket Gray, providing a range from warm neutrals to deeper accents.
