What color is Benjamin Moore Capri Seas?
Benjamin Moore Capri Seas 2047-40 is a clear mid-tone teal that sits between aqua and green, with a lively blue cast that keeps it feeling fresh rather than heavy. Its noticeable saturation gives it enough presence for a powder room, breakfast nook, or painted built-in, especially when balanced by soft white trim. In bright daylight, Capri Seas reads cleaner and more turquoise, while lower or warmer lighting can bring forward its greener side. Pair it with pale oak, woven natural fibers, matte brass, or crisp white tile for contrast. It also makes a confident accent on cabinetry or a front door when the surrounding exterior colors are restrained.

LRV of Capri Seas
Capri Seas has an LRV of 41.8% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 41.8%, 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.
