5 Colours You Need To Know About From The Historical Collection By Benjamin Moore

We’re celebrating 50 years of Benjamin Moore’s historical collection this August, by showing you how to style their rich heritage colours in your home. Carefully curated to reflect the colours found in historic American architecture, this stunning palette brings a sense of heritage and classical appeal to both traditional and contemporary spaces.

1. Revere Pewter HC-172  

Revere Pewter is the perfect neutral backdrop for creating a contemporary living space, while its understated warmth gives your exteriors an air of sophistication. It bridges the gap between cool and warm, with its versatility lending itself to a wide range of spaces. Pair with crisp neutrals like Super White to create contrast and let this timeless shade take centre stage. 

2. Queen Anne Pink 

For a space that feels light and airy, Queen Anne Pink is a great choice. The delicate peach shade can be styled in many ways and effortlessly complements a wide range of colours. Pair with darker shades like Myrtle Beach and Firenze or contrasting shades like Cushing Green.

3. Cushing Green  

Green has grown in popularity over the last few years and it’s easy to see why. With its connection to nature and its ability to reduce stress, green is a versatile colour, suitable for a wide range of space. 

Cushing Green has a grounding quality that creates a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Layer this colour with neutrals like Edgecomb Gray and Bennington Gray or create a tonal colour scheme using shades like White Heron or Crystalline. 

4. Summerdale Gold  

Nothing says summer like this warm golden honey shade. Yellow signifies optimism, joy and creativity making it ideal for spaces like kid’s playrooms and home offices. Summerdale Gold works well with soft neutrals like Marble White and Abingdon Putty or contrasting shades like Ashwood Moss.

5. Woodlawn Blue 

If you’re drawn to cooler colours, Woodlawn Blue is a calming choice. With its connection to water, blue can help create a peaceful atmosphere and is particularly well suited to kitchens and bathrooms. Pair this with natural wood tones or white, or add panelling to introduce depth, texture and interest.  

Whatever atmosphere you want to create, there’s a shade to suit all moods in the Benjamin Moore Historical Collection. Shop the Historical Collection online or visit your local Brewers Decorator Centre to discuss your next project with our in-store team.
