What color is Benjamin Moore Wethersfield Moss?

Benjamin Moore Wethersfield Moss HC-110 is a muted olive-gray with a softened khaki cast, giving it an earthy, slightly weathered appearance. Its mid-tone depth keeps it present on a wall without reading overly dark or heavily saturated. In daylight, the green-gray character is likely to feel more apparent, while warmer artificial lighting can draw out its subdued golden-beige side. Use it in a study, mudroom, dining room, or on built-in cabinetry where its grounded color can hold up against natural wood and black hardware. Creamy off-whites, warm taupes, aged brass, stone, and linen textiles make especially natural companions.

What are Benjamin Moore Wethersfield Moss undertones?

Wethersfield Moss is a midtone, muted yellow-green with a gray-olive cast rather than a bright botanical green. Its visible undertone leans yellow and slightly warm, which keeps the mossy green family from reading cool or blue-based. Benjamin Moore describes it as “a classic mossy green with a subtle warm cast,” consistent with the color’s yellow-leaning green appearance. Warm artificial light may bring out more of its olive warmth, while cool daylight can make its gray-green side appear more noticeable.

LRV of Wethersfield Moss

Wethersfield Moss has an LRV of 25.92% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).

Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 25.92%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
