Benjamin Moore

Chateau

CSP-140

Chateau is a muted gray-beige with warm undertones and a soft, earthy cast. Its LRV of 36.85 puts it in the mid range and gives it a steady depth. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, or hallways where a neutral backdrop is needed.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore Classic Gray to keep the palette light. Stone Hearth or Camouflage add adjacent color, while Kendall Charcoal gives darker contrast.
