Meridian Blue

761

Meridian Blue (761) is a saturated teal with strong green undertones balanced by a blue base, placing it in the peacock-blue range. With an LRV of 25.55, it absorbs a substantial amount of light, functioning as a bold, deep-value color suitable for accent walls or smaller spaces. The green undertone is prominent, distinguishing it from true blues and giving it a distinctly aquatic quality.

It coordinates with Cloud White 967 for a high-contrast pairing, Spring Morning 263 for a lighter tonal bridge, White Diamond OC-61 as a versatile trim, and Hale Navy HC-154 for a deeper, layered blue scheme.
