Benjamin Moore

Urban Sophisticate

CSP-160

Urban Sophisticate (HC-xx) from Benjamin Moore is a gray-green neutral with muted sage undertones that read more gray than green in most lighting. It has an LRV of 45.87, placing it in the mid-range of reflectivity and making it functional in rooms with moderate natural light. The green-gray base keeps it from leaning too warm or too cool, which allows it to sit comfortably alongside a range of finishes and materials.

It coordinates well with Benjamin Moore's Simply White, Gray Owl, Balboa Mist, Kendall Charcoal, and Hale Navy.
