The Analysis
Lime Obsession is a muted, earthy olive that provides significant character without being neon. With an LRV of 39.83, it absorbs more light than it reflects, which will make a room feel cozy and grounded rather than expansive or airy.
It acts as a strong backdrop or a statement color rather than a neutral. Use it on all four walls for a moody, immersive look, or as a feature wall to anchor a room’s focal point.
LRV 40History & Origin
This tone draws from mid-century organic palettes, bridging the gap between vintage 1970s aesthetics and contemporary biophilic design. It feels established and rooted rather than trendy or disposable.
How to Use It
It excels in studies, dens, or bedrooms where you want a settled atmosphere. Pair it with warm walnut wood tones and matte black hardware to heighten its sophisticated, earthy quality.
The Mood
This color feels stable and organic, leaning toward a restful, nature-inspired environment. It is less intense than a primary green, making it a sustainable choice for daily living that avoids feeling over-stimulating.
Colour harmonies
Complementary
Opposite on the colour wheel — bold, high-contrast pairings. Use for a feature wall or furniture you want to command attention.
Analogous
Neighbouring hues — cohesive and calm, great for layered schemes that feel collected rather than matched.
Split complementary
Near-opposites for strong contrast with a little less tension than a pure complement. A favourite of interior designers.
Triadic
Three evenly spaced hues — balanced, vibrant, and versatile. Keep one dominant and use the others sparingly.
Tetradic (square)
Four hues in a square on the wheel — rich, dynamic palettes. Best when one colour leads and the others accent.
Monochromatic
Dark, mid, and light steps on the same hue — a failsafe gradient for trim, walls, and accents without shifting colour family.
