Highland Breeze

786

Highland Breeze is a sky blue with cool undertones that contribute to its clean, open appearance. With an LRV of 61.42, this color reflects a good amount of light and works well in bedrooms and living areas where brightness is desired. The blue base is moderately saturated, leaning toward a soft, approachable range.

This shade coordinates with Benjamin Moore Silver Mist and Quiet Moments for cohesive cool pairings. Hale Navy offers deeper contrast, while Chantilly Lace provides a crisp white option, and Soft Fern adds an analogous green element.
