Benjamin Moore Gray Cashmere is a light gray paint color with a green/blue undertone. Is it right for your space? Keep reading to find out.
Gray Cashmere is one of my favorite colors for bedroom walls. It has enough gray to feel soft and relaxing with a smokey green/blue undertone.
What does Gray Cashmere pair with? For woodwork and trim use a soft creamy white like Benjamin Moore White Dove for a more traditional space or a crisp white like Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace for a modern look. For accents, fabrics and accessories add shades of soft blush tones, moody teals, and warm charcoal.
With an LRV (Light Reflective Value) of 64.53, Gray Cashmere is definitely on the light airy side but still has enough depth not to feel washed out in larger or well lit rooms. The green tones will be more noticeable in south facing rooms or rooms with a lot of natural light. In north facing rooms, Gray Cashmere will feel cooler and bluer with a more pronounced gray undertone.
In this bedroom, Gray Cashmere pairs seamlessly with linen window treatments, crisp white trim and bedding along with navy touches. It's soft and soothing without feeling heavy - perfect for a calming space.
The subtle green/gray undertones also make Gray Cashmere a great choice for the bathroom walls. It pairs brilliantly with marble and crisp white trim.
Looking to add some color to your modern farmhouse or cottage kitchen? Pair creamy warm cabinets with white marble counters and walls in the airy and breezy Gray Cashmere for contrast. Add touches of brass or oiled bronze in hardware, lighting or accents.
Want to see if Benjamin Moore Gray Cashmere will work in your space? The best way to find the right color for you home is to try a sample before making a commitment.

They are made with two coats of real paint making them100% accurate representation of the final color on your walls. Each easy-to-peel paint sample can be repositioned multiple times to different locations on your wall to compare how it may look in different lighting or to other colors.
