Benjamin Moore Irises 1440 is a muted blue-gray with a cool cast and a lightly softened, violet-leaning edge. Its medium depth gives it enough presence for a full room without reading as overly dark or saturated. In daylight, Irises tends to show its quiet blue character, while warmer lamps can bring out a gentler gray-lavender look. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and home offices, especially alongside clean white trim, pale oak, charcoal textiles, or brushed nickel hardware. Use it on walls for a calm, grounded backdrop, or on cabinetry for a restrained hit of color.
