Castle Gate

CSP-75

Castle Gate is a cool smoky gray with a neutral undertone that leans slightly blue. An LRV of 25.81 gives it noticeable depth and a mid-dark read. It fits offices, bedrooms, or modern living rooms where a cool gray is desired.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore Classic Gray or Simply White for a clean scheme, and add Silver Marlin for a softer transition. Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal provide darker accents.
