Benjamin Moore

Burbank Blue

732

Burbank Blue is a saturated turquoise with cool blue-green undertones. Its LRV of 45.99 makes it a mid-tone that holds color without going dark. It works on accent walls, baths, or coastal interiors where stronger chroma is acceptable.

Combine it with Benjamin Moore White Diamond and Silver Mist for lighter balance. Hale Navy and Kendall Charcoal add darker structure, while Gray Owl softens transitions. In north-facing light, the undertone stays cool and the shade can read deeper.

Burbank Blue in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
