Benjamin Moore

Gray Owl

2137-60 / OC-52

Gray Owl is a light gray with green-blue undertones that appear differently depending on lighting conditions. With an LRV of 64.51, it reflects a moderate amount of light and works well in rooms with natural light where it adds depth without feeling heavy. The cool cast makes it suitable for living rooms, bedrooms, and open-concept spaces.

Gray Owl coordinates well with Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace, Decorator's White, and Smoke for lighter pairings, while Hale Navy and Kendall Charcoal provide deeper contrast options.
