Benjamin Moore Bedford Blue 1679

Benjamin Moore Bedford Blue 1679 is a mid-depth blue with a muted slate cast, reading cooler than a classic denim or primary blue. Its gray influence keeps the color grounded, while the #4E738C value gives it enough blue presence to hold its own on a full wall. In bright daylight, Bedford Blue can appear cleaner and slightly more blue-forward; lower or warmer light tends to bring out its softened, smoky character. It suits bedrooms, home offices, and bathrooms, and can also make a confident choice for painted cabinetry or an exterior front door. Pair it with soft white trim, pale gray stone, weathered oak, brushed nickel, or warm brass for contrast.
