Mexicali Turquoise

662

Mexicali Turquoise is a medium-saturation turquoise from Benjamin Moore with an LRV of 53.61, placing it in the mid-range of light reflectance. The color balances blue and green undertones nearly equally, reading as a true turquoise without strong bias toward either cyan or teal. Under warm lighting it shifts slightly greener, while cooler daylight emphasizes its blue side.

It coordinates with Tropicana Cabana 2048-50 for a brighter tonal pairing, White Dove OC-17 for trim, Hale Navy HC-154 for grounded contrast, Horizon 1478 as a pale neutral wall companion, and Revere Pewter HC-172 to introduce warmth.
