How it reads
Tranquility is a pale grey from Benjamin Moore's Affinity collection with a soft green-blue whisper — the color of sea fog rather than a city sky. At LRV 53 it is a true light-mid tone, and it does exactly what its name suggests: it calms a room without making it cold.
In a bedroom with navy bedding and a cluster of white globe lights it is serene and a little modern; with warm wood it turns softer and more coastal. It is one of the most restful colors in the library.

Questions
Is Tranquility grey, green or blue?
A grey with a little of both. Daylight brings out the green; lamplight brings out the blue-grey.
Is Tranquility good for a bedroom?
Excellent — it is restful, holds its color through the day and works with both cool and warm accents.
