Surf Blue is a deep teal with strong blue-green undertones and high saturation. An LRV of 18.24 gives it a dark, concentrated appearance. It is best used as an accent or focal color.

The undertones remain consistent under artificial lighting. It pairs effectively with Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace and Kendall Charcoal, while Ocean Air and Seafoam soften transitions.
