Del Mar Blue

704 / HC-142

Del Mar Blue is a muted blue-green with noticeable green undertones that give it an organic, coastal quality. It has an LRV of 37.77, placing it in the medium-light range and making it suitable for rooms where moderate light absorption is acceptable. This color reads as subdued rather than saturated, functioning well on walls without overwhelming adjacent finishes.

It pairs effectively with Benjamin Moore Sea Foam, Soft Fern, Hale Navy, Simply White, and Edgecomb Gray. Use it in bedrooms, bathrooms, or living areas where a grounded blue-green is needed.
