Benjamin Moore

Shabby Chic

1018 / CC-398

Shabby Chic is a mid-range neutral with an LRV of 49.49, sitting near the tipping point between light and dark on the reflectance scale. It carries both beige and gray undertones, which means it can shift warm or cool depending on adjacent colors and light source. North-facing rooms tend to pull out the gray, while south-facing spaces emphasize the beige.

Benjamin Moore White Dove and Simply White pair cleanly at trim. Kendall Charcoal provides strong contrast for accents, while Palladian Blue and Revere Pewter work within a restrained, neutral-leaning scheme.
