Benjamin Moore

Outer Sphere

645

Outer Sphere by Benjamin Moore is a light, airy color with prominent blue and green undertones that give it a cool, aquatic quality. Its Light Reflectance Value of 74.06 makes it highly reflective, suitable for bathrooms, bedrooms, or open living areas where an expansive, bright feel is desired. The green component is slightly more dominant than the blue, preventing it from reading as a pure sky tone.

It coordinates effectively with Benjamin Moore's Beach Glass, Sea Foam, Hale Navy, White Dove, and Kendall Charcoal, supporting both soft tonal groupings and sharper contrasts.
