Benjamin Moore

Silver Lake

1598

Silver Lake is a cool-leaning mid-tone gray with noticeable blue undertones that become more apparent under natural daylight. At an LRV of 54.82, it reflects a moderate amount of light, keeping rooms bright without feeling washed out. The blue shift in its base distinguishes it from warmer grays and gives walls a crisp, clean read.

It coordinates well with Benjamin Moore Gray Owl for a tonal layered effect, Stonington Gray for a slightly lighter companion, Hale Navy as a deeper anchor, Chantilly Lace for sharp white trim, and Kendall Charcoal for grounding accents.

Silver Lake in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
