Benjamin Moore

Horizon Gray

2141-50

Horizon Gray is a medium gray with subtle sage undertones that add depth and prevent a purely neutral read. With an LRV of 50.68, it occupies the middle range of light reflectance, neither too dark nor too bright for most applications. The sage influence gives this gray a slightly organic quality that distinguishes it from cooler steel grays.

This color coordinates effectively with Benjamin Moore's Edgecomb Gray for warmth, Revere Pewter for tonal consistency, Hale Navy for contrast, Chantilly Lace for clean trim work, and Black Forest Green to emphasize its subtle green undertones.
