Applied as an accent to this striking kitchen designed by Mark Lee & Ed the beams and shelving have a calming effect on the overall feel of the space adding a graceful sophistication to this task oriented room.

Specifically, “it’s a color in the neutral spectrum that references a contemplative state of mind and design. Not arresting nor aggressive, this understated yet glamorous gray creates a soothing, impactful common ground” according to Ellen O’Neill, Benjamin Moore’s Director of Strategic Design Intelligence.
