Miami Teal

656

Miami Teal is a high-chroma turquoise with green and cyan undertones that give it an electric, highly saturated appearance. With an LRV of 44.35, it sits in the mid-range, close to Miami Green but shifted slightly bluer in hue. The hex value #4FC2B1 shows the green-blue balance that defines its character.

Benjamin Moore lists coordinating colors including Meadow Mist 936, Britannia Blue 1623, Lemon Ice 2024-70, and Baby Boy Blue 2056-50. The warm counterpoint of Lemon Ice against this cool teal creates a notable temperature contrast useful in color planning.
