What color is Benjamin Moore Trout Gray?

Benjamin Moore Trout Gray 2124-20 is a deep, muted gray with a subtle cool blue cast visible in its #696D70 color value. It has enough depth to define a room without reading as near-black, making it especially effective on cabinetry, interior doors, or a study’s walls. In bright daylight, its blue-gray character may appear a little clearer, while warmer artificial light can soften the coolness and bring out its charcoal-like depth. Pair Trout Gray with clean white trim, pale gray stone, brushed nickel, or light oak for crisp contrast. It can also ground a bathroom or kitchen alongside soft off-whites and matte black hardware.

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 16.41%, 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.
