Buffett Green

Benjamin Moore's Buffett Green is a green shade whose quieter details emerge through comparison. Its LRV of 10.6 gives it real visual weight, allowing the color to hold a wall rather than simply recede from view. Because screens flatten both light and texture, sample the paint beside the finishes that will ultimately surround it.

Though anchored in the 18th century greens found by researchers, this deep, less conventional green makes a fresh, bold design statement.
