Benjamin Moore

Summer Mist

CC-906 / 822

Summer Mist is a muted periwinkle blue with a balanced mix of blue and violet undertones. Its LRV of 44.82 places it in the mid-range, allowing it to provide color without overly darkening a space. It is well suited for bedrooms, bathrooms, and secondary living areas where cooler tones are desired.

The color can appear slightly grayer under low light. It pairs smoothly with Cloud White and Silver Lake for a restrained palette. For contrast, Kendall Charcoal or Hale Navy add structure, while Pale Oak softens transitions.

Summer Mist 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.
