Benjamin Moore

Oceanic Teal

669

Oceanic Teal by Benjamin Moore is a mid-tone blue-green with cool undertones and an LRV of 49.56, placing it near the center of the reflectance scale. This balance allows it to deliver noticeable color without overwhelming a room, making it functional in living areas, bathrooms, and bedrooms. The hue leans slightly more blue than green, giving it a distinctly aquatic quality on walls.

It coordinates with Benjamin Moore Sea Foam and Soft Fern for analogous pairings, Hale Navy and Kendall Charcoal for deeper contrast, and White Dove for a soft, warm trim option that tempers the coolness.
