Lunar Tide

M440-5

Lunar Tide is a softened blue-green that leans toward weathered teal. That muted base helps the teal settle beside stone. It works well in bedrooms, bathrooms, and built-ins where a clear aqua would feel too playful.

On large walls, expect more green to appear beside warm wood floors. A clean white ceiling keeps it fresh, and honed marble or brushed nickel can sharpen the watery side. Avoid pairing it with muddy beige unless the room has strong daylight.
