Benjamin Moore

November Skies

2128-50

November Skies by Benjamin Moore is a soft blue-gray with cool undertones and restrained saturation that gives it a muted, overcast quality. Its LRV of 48.55 places it in the mid-range of light reflectance, making it adaptable to rooms with varying natural light levels. The blue-gray balance reads as neither strongly blue nor plainly gray, which allows it to work in living rooms, bedrooms, and transitional hallways.

It coordinates well with Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace, Decorator's White, Kendall Charcoal, Revere Pewter, and Palladian Blue, providing clean contrast with whites and tonal depth alongside deeper neutrals.
