What color is Benjamin Moore Gray Pinstripe?

Benjamin Moore Gray Pinstripe 1588 is a muted medium gray with a cool blue-green cast that keeps it from reading flat or overly steely. Its low saturation gives the shade a softened, weathered appearance rather than a crisp charcoal look. In bright daylight, the subtle green-blue influence may become more noticeable, while lower light can make it appear deeper and more neutral. Gray Pinstripe suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and studies where a calm, grounded wall color is wanted. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or matte black hardware to give its cool undertone some contrast. It can also bring quiet depth to cabinetry or an exterior door without feeling as dark as a near-black gray.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 22.04%, 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.
