As a medium, muted cool gray, New Zealand Forest brings a calm energy through its neutral undertones. With an LRV of 44, it balances depth and brightness, making it a strong choice for dining rooms, accent walls, and home offices. Behr offers Cameroon Green as an extremely close match, while Benjamin Moore's Jack is also very similar. It complements both bright whites and charcoal grays, making it easy to build a cohesive palette around.
