Benjamin Moore

Mountain Mist

868

Mountain Mist (868) is a pale blue-gray with cool undertones that lean slightly toward green in its cyan base. With an LRV of 70.55, it reflects a significant amount of light and reads as an airy near-neutral in well-lit spaces. The gray undertone keeps the blue from becoming dominant, resulting in a color that functions close to a tinted white in open rooms.

It pairs well with White Heron (OC-57) for trim, Vanderberg Blue (721) for a deeper tonal step, Steam (AF-15) for a warmer off-white ceiling, and Bricktone Red (2005-30) as a high-contrast accent.
