Blue Mosque

SW 6789

Blue Mosque (hex #01819E) is a vivid, cool-leaning blue with a teal quality that gives it notable visual energy. At an LRV of 17, it absorbs a considerable amount of light, producing a rich, saturated appearance. Its cooler temperature and strong chroma make it well-suited for accent walls or contained applications in kitchens and bathrooms.

To moderate its intensity, soft warm neutrals like Accessible Beige or Shoji White provide effective counterbalance. Teal-adjacent companions such as Rivulet and the lighter Tradewind extend its color family in analogous schemes, while a dark anchor like Tricorn Black sharpens its visual impact.
