Benjamin Moore

London Fog

1541

London Fog is a mid-tone neutral gray with soft, warm gray undertones that keep it from reading too stark on the wall. At an LRV of 56.44, it sits comfortably in the medium-light range, reflecting a moderate amount of light without washing out. It pairs well with Revere Pewter and Horizon Gray for a tonal scheme, while Black Iron or Kendall Charcoal provide strong contrast.

For trim and ceilings, White Dove or Classic Gray maintain a cohesive, understated palette.
