Benjamin Moore

Blue Dusk

1644

Blue Dusk is a muted ocean blue with a gray undertone. An LRV of 24.03 places it in a darker mid-tone range. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, or baths where a subdued blue is needed.

Chantilly Lace and Simply White keep trim crisp, while Edgecomb Gray and Saybrook Sage create a soft adjacent palette. Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal add depth.

Blue Dusk 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.
