Benjamin Moore

April Showers

1507

April Showers is a muted green-gray with a subtle warm undertone that prevents it from reading cold in north-facing rooms. At an LRV of 66.84 it reflects a moderate amount of light and holds steady under both daylight and incandescent sources. The green content is restrained enough that the color functions as a neutral on full-room walls.

It coordinates with Gray Owl for a lighter trim, Stonington Gray as a cooler adjacent tone, and Balboa Mist where a warmer neutral is needed on ceilings or wainscoting. Darker accents such as Kendall Charcoal or Onyx provide definition on millwork and doors.
