About Summer Harvest

Summer Harvest (CC-190) is a light, medium-strength beige from Benjamin Moore that leans yellow. With an LRV of 74, Summer Harvest 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 Summer Harvest's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for open-plan living areas, hallways, living rooms and bedrooms. It's very close to Philadelphia Cream (HC-30); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.

How Summer Harvest changes with the light

Summer Harvest 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

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

E

East-facing rooms

Summer Harvest 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 Summer Harvest can turn noticeably more yellow or orange; test a sample at midday.

W

West-facing rooms

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