Benjamin Moore

Evening Sky

833

Evening Sky is a dark blue with strong cool undertones, blending near-black and midnight blue tones into a single deep hue. Its LRV of 7.35 places it at the very low end of the reflectance scale, so it absorbs most ambient light and works best in rooms with adequate artificial or natural lighting. This color is appropriate for bedrooms, accent walls, or smaller enclosed spaces.

For contrast, pair it with Benjamin Moore's Classic Gray or Simply White. Deeper companions like Backwoods or New London Burgundy reinforce its intensity, while Woodlawn Blue offers a tonal bridge.
