Benjamin Moore

Apparition

860

Apparition is a soft gray with beige undertones that keep it from reading cold or stark on walls. Its LRV of 57.29 puts it in the mid-light range, reflecting enough light to keep rooms open while still registering as a distinct color rather than an off-white. It works well alongside White Dove on trim and transitions smoothly into Edgecomb Gray in hallways or connected spaces.

Kendall Charcoal provides a grounded accent for built-ins or lower cabinetry, and Revere Pewter can serve as a slightly warmer wall color in adjacent rooms.
