Benjamin Moore

Avalon

CC-756 / 712

Avalon is a medium teal with gray undertones that reduce its chroma and give it a muted, cooled-down appearance. With an LRV of 26.39, it sits in a moderately dark range and absorbs a fair amount of light, so it benefits from rooms with adequate natural or supplemental lighting. The gray component keeps it from reading too saturated, making it workable for larger surface areas.

White Dove and Ballet White are effective trim pairings that maintain brightness without stark contrast. For deeper anchoring, Hale Navy, Kendall Charcoal, or adjacent teals like Beach Glass can be used.
