Benjamin Moore

Seahorse

2028-70

Seahorse is a very light yellow-green with a high LRV of 87.08, making it one of the brighter tones in its range. The dominant yellow base is tempered by a mild green undertone that prevents it from reading as stark or overly warm. In north-facing rooms it may appear slightly greener, while south light amplifies the yellow cast.

Benjamin Moore Spring Mint and Pale Avocado sit in a similar tonal family and pair naturally. Simply White or White Dove serve as clean trim options, and Newburg Green offers a deeper accent contrast.
