Benjamin Moore

Wasabi

AF-430

Wasabi (BM) is a medium-saturation yellow-green with warm undertones, carrying an LRV of 37.35. This mid-range reflectance positions it between light and dark values, giving it moderate visual weight on a surface. The yellow content is pronounced enough to shift it away from a pure green reading, resulting in an olive-adjacent hue.

Compatible Benjamin Moore pairings include Guilford Green, Saybrook Sage, Hale Navy, and New London Burgundy, allowing for analogous warm schemes or direct complementary contrast.
