Benjamin Moore

Tropical Paradise

575

Tropical Paradise (BM) is a light, cool seafoam green with a clean mint character and a cool undertone that leans slightly toward blue. With an LRV of 74.47, it reflects a large portion of light, keeping rooms bright and open. The high reflectance and low saturation mean this color reads as a tinted white-green in well-lit spaces.

It coordinates effectively with Benjamin Moore's White Dove, Chantilly Lace, Hale Navy, Woodlawn Blue, and Sweet Dreams, allowing for both high-contrast pairings and soft tonal combinations within the cool spectrum.

Tropical Paradise in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
