Benjamin Moore

Hudson Bay

1680 / CC-810

Hudson Bay is a classic navy blue with subtle warm undertones that prevent it from reading as stark or cold. At an LRV of 9.77, this deep color absorbs considerable light, making it appropriate for accent walls, cabinetry, or spaces where a dramatic backdrop is desired. The slight warmth in the navy gives it a lived-in quality rather than an overly formal appearance.

This color coordinates well with Benjamin Moore's Silver Lake for a cool tonal pairing, Chantilly Lace for crisp white contrast, Golden Straw for warm accents, Edgecomb Gray for neutral balance, and Decorator's White for architectural trim.
