Benjamin Moore

Deep Sea Green

735

Deep Sea Green is a dark teal green with strong cool undertones that position it firmly on the blue-green axis. With an LRV of 8.9, it reflects very little light and will read significantly darker on walls than it appears on a chip. This shade is best used in well-lit spaces or as an accent to prevent it from overwhelming a room.

It suits contemporary or coastal-themed interiors. For coordinated palettes, consider Benjamin Moore White Dove, Nimbus Gray, Hale Navy, Revere Pewter, or Edgecomb Gray.

Deep Sea Green 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.

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.
