What color is Benjamin Moore Through the Looking Glass?

Benjamin Moore Through the Looking Glass CSP-495 is a light, muted gray with a faint warm cast visible in its slightly softened, off-white balance. Its low saturation keeps the color quiet and even rather than sharply silver or blue. In bright daylight, it reads as a clean pale gray; under warmer evening lighting, the gentle warmth becomes more noticeable. Use it on living room or bedroom walls where you want definition without a heavy contrast against white trim. Natural oak, brushed nickel, charcoal textiles, and creamy whites give this shade a grounded, restrained setting.

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.
