Benjamin Moore

Sea Reflections

1664

Sea Reflections sits in the mid-tone blue range with an LRV of 28.12, giving it moderate depth and noticeable presence on walls. Gray undertones temper the blue, pulling it away from pure saturation and toward a muted, weathered quality. It reads cooler under artificial light and slightly greener in north-facing rooms.

Pair it with Balboa Mist or Edgecomb Gray for a softened warm-cool contrast, or layer it alongside Silver Lake and Gray Owl for tonal continuity. Hale Navy works well as a darker accent within the same blue family.

Sea Reflections in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
