About Brazilian Rainforest

Brazilian Rainforest (651) is a very dark, muted green from Benjamin Moore. With an LRV of 10, Brazilian Rainforest absorbs most light. It creates a dramatic, enveloping look and suits accent walls, cabinetry and well-lit rooms.

North-facing light makes Brazilian Rainforest read cooler and slightly darker, while warm south-facing light softens it. It's a good fit for accent walls, front doors, cabinetry and powder rooms. Next to Fiddlehead Green (2041-20), it's more muted.

How Brazilian Rainforest changes with the light

Brazilian Rainforest is a deep color. In north-facing or dim rooms it reads darker and cozier; in south-facing rooms it shows more of its color. Either can work, depending on the mood you want.

N

North-facing rooms

Brazilian Rainforest will read even deeper in north light: great for a cozy, enveloping room, less so if you want it bright.

E

East-facing rooms

Brazilian Rainforest will look warmer and brighter in the morning and cooler and grayer by afternoon; check a sample at both times.

S

South-facing rooms

South light keeps Brazilian Rainforest from feeling heavy, so deep colors work well here.

W

West-facing rooms

Brazilian Rainforest looks cool in the morning and warms up in the golden late-afternoon light.
