What color is Benjamin Moore Coastal Paradise?
Benjamin Moore Coastal Paradise 655 is a clear, light blue-green with a distinctly cool cast and enough saturation to read as more than a pale pastel. Its #79D5CA color value gives it a fresh aqua appearance, leaning toward turquoise rather than a muted gray-green. In bright daylight, Coastal Paradise can look especially crisp and watery, while warmer indoor lighting may bring forward its greener side. It suits bathrooms, sunrooms, pool-adjacent spaces, and children’s rooms where a clean wash of color is welcome. Pair it with bright white trim, pale natural oak, woven rattan, or sandy beige textiles to keep the blue-green tone grounded. For a bolder application, use this shade on a painted vanity, interior door, or accent wall against soft neutral surroundings.

LRV of Coastal Paradise
Coastal Paradise has an LRV of 56.73% and refers to Light colors that reflect most 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 56.73%, 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.
