Best trim and Ceiling ColorsĬlean whites such as Chantilly Lace (BM OC-65) Oxford White (BM 869) and Extra White (SW 7006) look clean and crisp with Classic Gray. This stairway has Classic Gray walls and Simply White trim. This color goes well with warm metals such as brass and nickel. We love the way it highlights the beautiful brass Buddha statue.
The stairway below shows Classic Gray with Simply White trim. Paint color formulas are difficult to duplicate, and whites are especially hard to get right. One more thing… we do not recommend that you try to paint match Classic Gray or any other Benjamin Moore paints with Sherwin-Williams, Behr or any other manufacturer. Classic Gray will neutralize all the surrounding colors. Bright whites reflect every color that surrounds them. Another challenge is that whites reflect everything grass, your neighbor’s paint color, pink flowers, even an evergreen tree. A dark room will have a lot of shadows that make whites look dingy. The challenge with white paint colors that seems counterintuitive is that you need to have lots of light to be able to carry off a white color. It looks like a glorious soft white in South facing rooms. In dark North facing rooms it could flash slight gray, and it holds its own in East and West facing rooms, any time of day. It is so light, it will usually look white. This is a great color for every exposure – North, South, East or West.
#BENJAMIN MOORE SILVER BLUE UPDATE#
It is a great solution to update interiors with earthy Tuscan finishes. Use instead of white when your room is too dark, or you have lots of greenery outside. LRV is short for Light Reflectance Value, which is a measurement of how light (LRV=100) or dark (LRV=0) a color is. Simply White has an LRV of 74.8 which makes it very light greige, or darker off-white. Benjamin Moore Classic Gray OC-23 Classic Gray LRV
