Benjamin Moore

Ocean Air

2123-50

Ocean Air from Benjamin Moore is a soft blue-green with cool undertones, positioned at a hue angle of 180 degrees that places it squarely in the cool spectrum. With an LRV of 71.84, it is a high-reflectance shade that keeps rooms feeling open and well-lit, making it functional in bathrooms, bedrooms, and coastal-style living areas. The color leans slightly more blue than green, producing a clean, restrained coolness rather than a saturated aquatic tone.

It pairs naturally with Simply White and White Dove on trim, while Palladian Blue, Revere Pewter, and Wythe Blue support a layered, cohesive palette.
