Benjamin Moore

South Beach

2043-50

South Beach is a mid-toned aqua with green undertones and an LRV of 60.16, giving it enough reflectance to read as open and light-filled without appearing washed out. The green lean distinguishes it from a true cyan, and under warm lighting conditions it can shift slightly toward teal. It maintains good saturation at this lightness level, which keeps it from reading as a neutral.

Chantilly Lace and Natural Linen pair well as high-value neutrals, and Hale Navy offers a deep blue contrast. Ocean Air extends the palette in an analogous direction, while Coral Gables provides a warm complementary accent.
