What color is Benjamin Moore Adriatic Sea?
Benjamin Moore Adriatic Sea CSP-660 is a deep blue-green with a distinctly cool, oceanic cast. Its dark value gives it enough weight for a dining room, study, or powder room, where it can create a strong backdrop without reading as black. On cabinetry or built-ins, Adriatic Sea brings crisp definition alongside warm white walls, pale oak, and brushed brass hardware. Bright daylight pulls forward its blue-green character, while lower light makes the shade appear richer and more shadowed. Pair it with soft ivory, sandy beige, or light gray-blue textiles to keep the overall palette grounded and open.
LRV of Adriatic Sea
Adriatic Sea has an LRV of 8.01% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 8.01%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
