Evening Skyline

CSP-505

Evening Skyline is a soft, muted purple that sits on the cooler side of the spectrum. It has an LRV of 26.64, placing it in the medium-depth range where it provides noticeable color without overwhelming a room. The cool purple undertones read as a grayed-out mauve under most lighting conditions.

This shade works well in bedrooms or quiet sitting areas. Pair it with Benjamin Moore's Silver Half Dollar or Gray Owl for a tonal cool palette, or use Hale Navy or Vintage Wine for stronger contrast.
