Benjamin Moore

Stone Castle

CC-396 / 990

Stone Castle is a balanced greige with blended warm and cool undertones that keep it neutral in varied lighting. Its LRV of 50.69 gives it mid-range brightness, allowing it to sit comfortably on full walls. The color adapts well to living rooms and bedrooms without appearing heavy or washed out.

It remains stable across north- and south-facing exposures. Stone Castle works well with Benjamin Moore White Dove and Balboa Mist for cohesion. For contrast, Hale Navy or Salamander introduce depth, while Guilford Green supports a softer palette.
