High Park Benjamin Moore – Paint Color Overview

Benjamin Moore High Park is a part of the Classic Color Collection. This medium-green shade is timeless and elegant and would be the ideal shade for a soothing, relaxing vibe.

As a part of the 2022 Color Trends Palette from Benjamin Moore, it’s no wonder that this sage green paint color has been an absolute favorite for so many! It’s very close to BM’s 2022 Color of the Year, October Mist, just slightly darker.

I’ve really been into the new trend of gray-green paint colors. It’s like the perfect grayish neutral got a pop of color. I never thought a green neutral would be a thing, but it works for so many different styles, and I’m here for it!

While I wouldn’t recommend this particular color to brighten up a room, this sage-like shade is perfect for a bedroom, bathroom, accent wall, or painting cabinets and shelving. It’s a great way to add a tranquil vibe with that element of style and coolness.

High Park Benjamin Moore Overview

High Park Benjamin Moore is one of my favorite green paint colors! This color would be a stunning addition to any room. 

We used this Benjamin Moore paint color on our built-in cabinets in the home office. Originally, we decided on Caldwell Green but went with High Park instead. We painted the walls in Hazy Skies by Benjamin Moore and the color combination is dynamite!

This would also be a knockout for a dining room, especially one with high ceilings and plenty of natural light.

I really love how versatile this paint color is. It’s soft, tranquil, and soothing. But, if you paired it with the right color combination and decor elements, you could totally amp up the attitude of sophistication.

High Park Benjamin Moore Undertones

BM High Park has gray undertones. Working with undertones can be tricky. As you are purchasing drapes, comforters, blankets, towels, pillows, etcetera, stick to colors that also have gray undertones. This will help create a harmonious flow through the room.

A word of advice when painting a room: A paint sample will look completely different in the store compared to your home. This is all because of the lighting and other decor items in the room. I recommend picking up a few paint samples and painting a few swatches on the walls as a test before fully committing to a paint color.

Observing the room at different times of the day will help you get a sense of how the color will change with the sunlight, lightbulb temperatures, and fabrics. All of these elements play a big part in how a paint color appears.

  1. I’ve purchased high park for my bathroom walls, just wondering what shade of grey would pair well to paint my cabinets?

  2. I am building a 720 sq ft barndominium. I was thinking of using High Park throughout the house and October Mist in the bathroom. I am using White Dove on my kitchen cabinets. I also will have stained Pine wood on all my doors and trim throughout the house. Do you think this would work, or do you think it is too dark for such a small home?
    Thank you in advance for any advice you may have!

    1. Hi Gabrielle – The only thing I’d be worried about when using a color like High Park throughout a home is how other colors may clash with it. Since it isn’t a neutral color, you may find that certain textiles, furniture, rugs or decor that you already have don’t look great against High Park. Maybe consider starting in just one room (like the bedroom) and making sure you like it and it works with the rest of your home before committing to your entire living space.
