Benjamin Moore

Marina Gray

1599

Marina Gray is a mid-toned neutral gray with cool blue-green undertones that become more apparent in natural light. With an LRV of 44.46, it falls squarely in the middle of the reflectance scale, neither particularly light nor dark. Wickham Gray and Stonington Gray work as lighter companions on ceilings or trim, maintaining the same cool temperature throughout a space.

Hale Navy or Charcoal Slate add depth for accent walls or cabinetry, while Chantilly Lace provides a clean, high-contrast white for architectural details.

Marina Gray in Different Light
