Benjamin Moore

Carbon Copy

2117-10

Carbon Copy is a near-black with subtle violet undertones that shift slightly cooler in daylight. Its LRV of 5.33 indicates very low reflectance and a strong depth of color. Use it on doors, cabinetry, or a single wall when a dark neutral is required.

Benjamin Moore White Heron provides crisp contrast, while Shadow keeps a tonal relationship. Silver Fox can bridge to lighter grays.
