Benjamin Moore

Azurite

CW-670

Azurite is a muted, milky blue with gray-green undertones that keep the color earthy. An LRV of 20.81 places it in a dark mid-range, so it reads saturated on broad walls. In cooler daylight it leans bluer, while warm light brings out the gray.

It is suitable for studies, dining rooms, or feature walls where deeper color is acceptable. Pair it with White Dove or Simply White for light contrast, and add Salamander, New London Burgundy, or Wythe Blue for coordination.

Azurite 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.
