Benjamin Moore

Tidal Wave

2061-50

Tidal Wave is a cool, powdery blue from Benjamin Moore with soft gray undertones that moderate its saturation. At an LRV of 43.97, it reflects less light than a pastel blue but remains clearly in the mid-tone range, giving it visible presence on walls without dominating a space. The gray component pulls it back from appearing overly bright, producing a muted, dusty quality.

It pairs effectively with Sea Foam, Summer Shower, Chantilly Lace, Revere Pewter, and Gray, and it holds its cool cast consistently under most artificial lighting.
