Benjamin Moore

Pike's Peak Gray

2127-50

Pike’s Peak Gray is a medium blue-gray with cool undertones that can read more blue in daylight and more gray under warm artificial light. Its LRV of 39.38 gives it moderate depth while still reflecting enough light to avoid feeling heavy. It works well in bathrooms, bedrooms, and living areas where a cooler neutral is preferred.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore Silver Satin or Gray Owl for trim and nearby neutrals. For contrast, Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal will deepen the scheme, and Soft Chamois can add a warmer off-white balance.
