Mariana Trench

8002-41G

Mariana Trench lands as a blackened blue-green that leans toward inky teal. That very low LRV makes the teal feel deep enough for dramatic millwork. A front door, bar wall, or powder room can carry it when drama is the point.

LRV 6 means the color will look almost black in weak light. A satin sheen helps the blue-green surface stay readable. Pale stone or warm white trim gives relief. Tiny chips will not tell the whole story.

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.
