Benjamin Moore

Rocky Coast

1595

Rocky Coast is a deep, cool gray with an LRV of 17.28, meaning it absorbs a significant amount of light and reads as a heavy, grounding tone on walls. Its cool undertones pull slightly blue-green under daylight, while under warm incandescent light the color softens toward a more neutral charcoal. Silver Marlin provides a lighter continuation of its cool gray family, and Hale Navy offers a deep complementary pairing.

Simply White and Dove Wing serve as high-contrast trim colors that prevent the depth from closing in a room. Blue Echo extends the cool palette in an analogous direction.
