Benjamin Moore

Antiqued Aqua

CSP-705

Antiqued Aqua is a muted aquamarine that balances blue and green undertones in roughly equal measure. With an LRV of 31.73 it sits in the medium-low reflectance range and will read noticeably darker in rooms with limited natural light. The gray cast in its base keeps it from appearing too saturated on large wall areas.

Pairing it with White Dove or Simply White on trim provides a clean boundary, while Hale Navy can deepen an adjacent accent wall. Revere Pewter and Kendall Charcoal both work as grounding neutrals in a shared palette.

Antiqued Aqua in Different Light

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
