Benjamin Moore

Flower Box

CSP-530

Flower Box is a muted medium purple with clear blue undertones that place it on the cooler side of the spectrum. Its LRV of 28.94 gives it noticeable depth without becoming overly dark. The color is suitable for bedrooms, studies, or living rooms where moderate saturation is acceptable.

It remains stable under indirect light and does not shift heavily toward gray. Flower Box works well alongside Benjamin Moore Silver Gray and Nimbus Gray, while darker tones such as Kendall Charcoal or Hale Navy add contrast and definition, and Chantilly Lace keeps transitions crisp.
