What color is Benjamin Moore Gravel Gray?
Benjamin Moore Gravel Gray 2127-30 is a deep charcoal gray with a clear cool, blue-leaning cast. Its low-light value gives walls a substantial, grounded presence without reading as pure black. In bright daylight, the blue-gray character becomes more apparent, while evening lighting can make it appear closer to a smoky near-black. Use Gravel Gray on cabinetry, a library wall, or an exterior door where its depth can provide definition. It pairs especially well with crisp white trim, pale gray stone, brushed nickel, black metal, and natural wood finishes with cooler or weathered tones.

LRV of Gravel Gray
Gravel Gray has an LRV of 8.43% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 8.43%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
