Benjamin Moore

Skydive

CSP-700

Skydive sits at an LRV of 41.2, making it a mid-tone color with moderate light absorption. It presents as a soft teal with clear green undertones, reading distinctly aquatic without heavy saturation. Under warm lighting the green component becomes more pronounced, while cool daylight emphasizes the blue base.

The color retains a muted quality that keeps it from appearing overly bright or tropical. It pairs with Benjamin Moore White Dove, Pale Oak, Hale Navy, Windmill Wings, and Ocean Air. It works on walls and cabinetry where a controlled, cool-toned accent is needed.

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.
