Benjamin Moore

Rockport Gray

HC-105

Rockport Gray is a medium-depth gray with warm, taupe-leaning undertones created by a subtle brown base, registering an LRV of 36.61. It reads as a grounded greige rather than a pure gray, with the brown component becoming more visible in warm artificial light. In rooms with strong natural light, the color shifts perceptibly between gray and taupe throughout the day.

White Dove and Swiss Coffee work as clean trim pairings that preserve the warmth, while Edgecomb Gray and Revere Pewter create a layered tonal scheme. Hale Navy provides a strong cool contrast against its earthy base.
