Benjamin Moore

Tropical Pool

2038-60

Tropical Pool (BM) is a pale aqua-green with cool green undertones and very low saturation that gives it a clean, washed-out quality. At an LRV of 75.4, it reflects most incident light, functioning close to a tinted white in practice. The green lean in the undertone separates it from blue-based aquas and keeps it grounded in the green family.

It pairs well with Benjamin Moore's Misty Gray, Ice Mist, Newburg Green, Breath of Fresh Air, and Spring Mint, supporting schemes that stay within a cool, high-reflectance range or introduce darker green contrast.
