Benjamin Moore

Americana

770

Americana by Benjamin Moore is a deep teal blue with an LRV of 17.22, which means it absorbs most light and reads as a dark, saturated tone on the wall. The undertones are firmly cool, sitting between blue and green without pulling too far in either direction. It works well in libraries, dining rooms, and bedrooms where a sense of depth is the goal, and it can also anchor cabinetry or built-ins.

For contrast, pair it with Benjamin Moore's Manchester Tan or Edgecomb Gray; for a coordinated cool palette, Wythe Blue, Georgian Green, and Caliente work well alongside it.
