Benjamin Moore

Winter Ice

866

Winter Ice (BM) is a very light blue-green with an LRV of 75.12, placing it in the high-reflectance category. At hex #DAE4E2, the color reads as a pale, cool-toned neutral with a slight aqua shift that distinguishes it from pure grays. The blue-green undertone is subtle and may recede in rooms with warm artificial lighting while becoming more evident in natural daylight.

Same-brand pairings within Benjamin Moore include Quiet Moments, Evening Dove, Kendall Charcoal, Hale Navy, and Pale Oak, supporting both tonal cool palettes and warm-cool contrast schemes.
