Benjamin Moore

West Coast

1671 / CC-750

West Coast (1637) by Benjamin Moore is a dark, steely blue with cool gray undertones that anchor its overall temperature firmly in the cool range. Its LRV of 24.33 places it in the lower-mid-tone category, where it provides noticeable depth without reaching near-black territory. The gray undertone moderates the blue, preventing it from reading as saturated or vivid.

Suitable Benjamin Moore pairings include Silver Half Dollar, Wickham Gray, White Dove, Pale Oak, and Caliente, covering neutral, analogous, and accent-driven combinations.

West Coast 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.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
