Benjamin Moore

New Age

1444

New Age by Benjamin Moore is a light purple with a gray undertone that tempers its warmth and lends a muted, dusty quality to walls. With an LRV of 62.54, it reflects a good amount of light and can work effectively in bedrooms, sitting rooms, and meditation spaces without making them feel dim. The gray base prevents the purple from reading too saturated, keeping the overall effect restrained.

Suitable companion colors from Benjamin Moore include Simply White, Classic Gray, Hale Navy, Lavender Mist, and Ballet White, providing options for both neutral pairings and tonal layering.

New Age in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
