Benjamin Moore

Morning Sky Blue

2053-70

Benjamin Moore Morning Sky Blue (2053-70) is a pale, cool blue with subtle teal undertones created by a slight green component in its blue base. With an LRV of 78.01, it reflects a high amount of light and functions as a tinted near-white in well-lit spaces, though its blue identity becomes more apparent in lower light. The color carries minimal gray, keeping it clean rather than dusty.

It pairs with Ice Mist (OC-67) for an almost-white trim, Blue Danube (2062-30) for a deeper blue accent, Chantilly Lace (OC-65) for a pure white ceiling, and White Ice (OC-58) for a tonal companion.
