Benjamin Moore

Galt Blue

CW-560

Galt Blue is a soft blue with subtle green undertones, based on 18th-century paint formulations. With an LRV of 64.02, it reflects a good amount of light, making it appropriate for bedrooms, dining rooms, and living spaces. The green cast gives it a slightly aqua quality that distinguishes it from pure blues.

This color coordinates well with Benjamin Moore Simply White, Edgecomb Gray, Hale Navy as an accent, Saybrook Sage in adjacent areas, and Chantilly Lace for ceilings and trim.
