Vanderberg Blue

721 / HC-133

Vanderberg Blue is a dark teal from Benjamin Moore that blends blue, green, and gray in roughly equal measure. With an LRV of 11.1, it absorbs most light and reads as a saturated, low-brightness tone suited for accent walls or contained spaces. The cool undertones lean toward blue-green, and the gray component keeps the color from appearing too vivid.

It pairs with Chantilly Lace or Classic Gray to offset its depth, while Hawthorne Yellow provides warm contrast. Salamander and Van Deusen Blue work as analogous companions within the same cool-dark range.
