Benjamin Moore

Adagio

1593

Adagio by Benjamin Moore is a mid-tone gray with a slight blue undertone that becomes more apparent in cooler lighting conditions. Its LRV of 39.16 places it in the medium range, providing enough depth to anchor a room while still reflecting a reasonable amount of light. It works in bedrooms, living areas, and kitchens where a neutral gray that does not read too warm is needed.

Compatible Benjamin Moore colors include Gray Owl, Silver Satin, Hale Navy, Chantilly Lace, and Pale Oak, all of which sit comfortably alongside its cool-leaning base.
