Benjamin Moore

Frozen Canal

CC-908 / 829

Frozen Canal is a medium-toned color with balanced blue and violet undertones and an LRV of 47.96, placing it in the moderate light reflectance range. The blue-violet mix creates a cool, atmospheric quality without leaning strongly toward either hue. This shade works in bedrooms, living rooms, and home offices where a calm, cool backdrop is appropriate.

Frozen Canal coordinates with Benjamin Moore's Silver Gray for a tonal approach, pairs with Simply White for crisp trim contrast, and works alongside Gray Owl in adjacent spaces. Hale Navy or Chelsea Gray provide effective deeper accents.

Frozen Canal in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
