Benjamin Moore Powell Gray CW-665 is a muted, medium-dark blue-gray with a cool, slate-like cast. Its restrained saturation keeps it from reading overly blue, giving walls a grounded, architectural look rather than a bright coastal feel. In daylight, the blue-gray character is most noticeable, while lower or warmer lighting can make the shade appear deeper and more charcoal-leaning. Powell Gray is well suited to studies, dining rooms, mudrooms, or exterior trim where a substantial color is wanted without using black. Pair it with soft white paint, pale oak, aged brass, charcoal textiles, or natural stone for a clean, layered finish.
