Swept Away

701

Swept Away (Benjamin Moore) is a light gray with a cool green undertone and an LRV of 62.9. The green cast is slight, becoming more apparent when placed alongside pure grays or warm whites. The overall read is that of a soft, cool neutral with enough color presence to distinguish it from a straight gray.

It pairs effectively with White Dove, Gray Owl, Thunder, Hale Navy, and Head Over Heels from Benjamin Moore, accommodating both tonal neutral groupings and warm-cool contrast pairings.
