Benjamin Moore

Largo Teal

742

Largo Teal is a deep teal with prominent blue undertones that anchor it firmly in the cool spectrum. With an LRV of 16.7, it absorbs most ambient light and produces a concentrated, saturated presence on surfaces. The blue-green balance leans slightly toward blue, distinguishing it from warmer teals that read more aquatic.

Chantilly Lace and Classic Gray offer high-contrast brightness against its depth. Autumn Red or Deep Caviar create dramatic tonal pairings, while Blue Dragon and Ocean Air extend the blue-green range in a more graduated progression.
