Benjamin Moore

Hampshire Rocks

1450

Hampshire Rocks is a pale violet with light gray undertones that soften its appearance. With an LRV of 74.06, this color reflects substantial light and can make rooms feel more spacious. The gray component keeps the violet from reading too sweet, resulting in a neutral-leaning tone suitable for bedrooms or bathrooms.

It pairs well with Benjamin Moore Ballet White for trim, while Silver Satin provides a complementary cool neutral. For contrast, Kendall Charcoal or Hale Navy work as accent colors, and November Skies offers an analogous muted blue option.
