Benjamin Moore

Venezuelan Sea

2054-30

Venezuelan Sea (Benjamin Moore) is a dark teal with blue and green undertones that give it a cool, saturated presence. With an LRV of 14.08, it absorbs a large share of ambient light and reads as a deep, concentrated hue on walls. The balance between blue and green keeps it from leaning too strongly in either direction, sitting squarely in the teal category.

Chantilly Lace, White Dove, Hale Navy, Ocean Air, and Saybrook Sage from Benjamin Moore all pair effectively, with whites providing sharp contrast and softer greens creating a graduated tonal range.
