About Country Comfort

Country Comfort (305) is a light, medium-strength yellow from Benjamin Moore. With an LRV of 71, Country Comfort reflects most of the light that hits it, which helps small or dim rooms feel larger.

In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Country Comfort's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for kitchens, breakfast nooks, sunrooms and entryways. It's very close to Danse du Soleil (CC-212); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.

How Country Comfort changes with the light

Country Comfort has a strong warm undertone that balances cool north light well. In strong south or west sun it can look more golden, so check a sample at midday and in the late afternoon.

N

North-facing rooms

Country Comfort's warmth balances the cool north light, which is why warmer colors are the safe pick for north rooms.

E

East-facing rooms

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

S

South-facing rooms

In strong south light Country Comfort can turn noticeably more yellow or orange; test a sample at midday.

W

West-facing rooms

Country Comfort will glow warmer in the late afternoon, so check it at sunset if you want to avoid a strong yellow cast.
