Benjamin Moore

Ashwood Gray

1654

Ashwood Gray is a softened sky blue with gray undertones and an LRV of 61.35, placing it in the medium-light range. It reflects enough light to keep a room feeling open while retaining noticeable color presence on the wall. The gray component prevents it from reading as overtly blue, giving it a muted, restrained quality.

Silver Mist and Soft Sky share a similar tonal family and work well in neighboring rooms, while Hale Navy provides a deeper blue anchor. Kendall Charcoal and Pebble Beach function as grounding accent tones.

Ashwood Gray in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
