Benjamin Moore

Barnboard

CC-572 / 1545

Barnboard is a grounded gray with a slight brown undertone that keeps it earthy. Its LRV of 23.1 places it in the darker mid-range, so it reads strong on walls. Warm light pushes the brown note forward.

It is suitable for living rooms, offices, or built-ins where a deeper gray is needed, and it also works on cabinetry. Pair it with Gray Owl and Simply White for balance, and add Hale Navy for contrast.
