At Bob’s Professional Painting, one of the most common questions we get is:
“What Benjamin Moore colors go well with Kelly-Moore Swiss Coffee?”
Kelly-Moore’s Swiss Coffee is a timeless, creamy white with warm beige undertones. It’s a versatile choice often used for ceilings, trim, and cabinetry, especially in homes styled with a traditional, transitional, or farmhouse feel.
But when it comes to wall colors, which Benjamin Moore shades pair best with this popular trim color?
Here are our top recommendations:
🕊️ 1. Feather Down (OC-6)
A warm, soft neutral with gentle taupe undertones, Feather Down complements Swiss Coffee beautifully. It creates a cozy and sophisticated atmosphere, ideal for living areas and bedrooms.
🎨 2. Pale Oak (OC-20)
Pale Oak is a subtle greige with pink-violet undertones. It pairs effortlessly with the warmth of Swiss Coffee, bringing a soft and serene touch to bedrooms, hallways, and common spaces.
🌫️ 3. Balboa Mist (OC-27)
A crowd favorite, Balboa Mist is a warm gray with a hint of lavender. Its elegant softness offers a refined contrast against Swiss Coffee trim without overwhelming the space.
🏡 4. Edgecomb Gray (HC-173)
Edgecomb Gray leans beige under lower lighting and offers a grounded, earthy appeal. This warm greige brings timeless character to any space, making it a reliable pairing with Swiss Coffee.
☁️ 5. Classic Gray (OC-23)
Looking for a tone-on-tone palette? Classic Gray is a barely-there greige that adds subtle depth while keeping the look clean and airy. It’s perfect for creating harmony with Swiss Coffee without stark contrast.
🚫 Colors to Avoid
Cooler shades like Chantilly Lace, Gray Owl, or Stonington Gray—while beautiful—can make Swiss Coffee appear overly yellow or dated. For the most cohesive look, stick with warmer neutrals.
