Benjamin Moore

Cinder

AF-705

Cinder is a medium gray with neutral undertones and low chroma. Its LRV of 24.13 gives it enough depth to read as a grounding wall color. It works in living rooms, hallways, or offices that need a stable gray.

Classic Gray and Balboa Mist keep the scheme light and tonal. Hale Navy or Salamander provide contrast, while Revere Pewter adds a warm adjacent neutral.
