What color is Benjamin Moore Bahaman Sea Blue?

Benjamin Moore Bahaman Sea Blue 2055-40 is a bright blue-green with a clear turquoise cast and lively, medium-light depth. Its cool, saturated character reads especially clean beside white trim, soft gray tile, and light oak or maple finishes. In strong daylight, this color can appear more vivid and aqua-leaning, while lower light brings out a slightly deeper teal-blue appearance. It makes a confident choice for a bathroom wall, laundry room, painted island, or a single accent wall in a casual living space. Pair it with creamy whites for contrast or deeper navy accents for a layered blue palette.

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.
