Benjamin Moore

Return to Paradise

2038-50

Return to Paradise is a mid-tone seafoam green with an LRV of 61.65, reflecting enough light to keep spaces open while carrying visible green-blue saturation. The cool undertone is consistent across most lighting conditions, though it may read slightly bluer in north-facing rooms. Its reflectance level makes it functional as a main wall color without appearing overly dark or overly pale.

Waterfall and Ocean Air extend the cool green family as coordinating tones. Hale Navy and Kendall Charcoal serve as strong dark accents, and Pale Oak provides a warm neutral trim option.
