About Homestead

Homestead (CC-724) is a deep, muted green from Benjamin Moore that leans yellow. With an LRV of 30, Homestead absorbs more light than it reflects, so it works best in rooms with good natural light or where you want a cozier feel.

In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Homestead's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for bedrooms, offices, kitchen islands and cabinets and accent walls. It's very close to Mistletoe (474); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.

How Homestead changes with the light

Homestead has a gentle warm undertone that keeps it from going cold in north-facing rooms, and it looks a touch warmer again in afternoon west light.

N

North-facing rooms

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

E

East-facing rooms

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

S

South-facing rooms

Bright south light shows Homestead close to its true color, slightly lighter and warmer.

W

West-facing rooms

Homestead will glow warmer in the late afternoon.
