Benjamin Moore

Cayman Lagoon

2046-30

Cayman Lagoon is a green with clear blue undertones and a saturated mid-dark tone. With an LRV of 25.27, it has noticeable depth and reads strong in low light. It works on kitchen islands, accent walls, or baths where a blue-green is appropriate.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore Simply White or Swiss Coffee to lift the palette. Gray Owl or Palladian Blue create a softer transition, while Hale Navy or Midnight Navy add depth.
