Benjamin Moore

Trout Gray

2124-20

Trout Gray (Benjamin Moore) is a charcoal-depth gray carrying a slightly cool cast, with an LRV of 16.41 that places it firmly in the dark range. The blue-tinged undertone becomes more apparent when placed beside pure neutrals. It pairs directly with Wickham Gray and Gray Owl, both of which draw out its cooler qualities.

Simply White offers a clean high-contrast trim option, while Hale Navy and Breath of Fresh Air extend the cool-neutral palette without introducing competing warmth across adjacent surfaces.
