Benjamin Moore

Niagara Falls

1657 / HC-152

Niagara Falls from Benjamin Moore is a medium-toned cornflower blue with cool undertones that keep it bright without tipping into pastel territory. Its LRV of 32.37 places it in the mid-range, reflecting enough light to work in living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways without making the space feel dark. The blue reads clean and slightly muted, fitting both modern and coastal schemes.

Benjamin Moore's Sterling and Iced Slate maintain a cool analogous palette, while White Dove and Simply White offer warm-neutral contrast, and Hale Navy can deepen an adjacent accent wall.
