Benjamin Moore

Arctic Blue

2050-60

Arctic Blue is a high-LRV light blue with noticeable green undertones that distinguish it from a pure sky blue. At an LRV of 70.86 it reflects a substantial amount of light and keeps rooms feeling open, though the green cast may intensify under warm-toned bulbs. The color reads as a tinted neutral rather than a saturated hue when applied at full-room scale.

Gray Owl and Classic Gray work as trim and transition colors, while Hale Navy and Wrought Iron provide high-contrast pairing options for doors or built-ins. Simply White is a clean ceiling companion.
