Glidden

Aquamarine Dream

PPG1135-4

Aquamarine Dream is a muted pale green-gray with a blue undertone. This muted aqua suits bedrooms, baths, or kitchen walls where a fresh neutral should still have character. Work in white oak, soapstone, or soft linen.

LRV 75 keeps it light, but the gray in the mix prevents a pastel effect. In bright sun, the green side becomes clearer. The gray calms the aquamarine.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
