What color is Benjamin Moore Florida Keys Blue?
Benjamin Moore Florida Keys Blue 2050-40 is a medium blue-green with a softened, slightly gray cast that keeps it from reading overly bright. Its teal-leaning character feels cool but not icy, with enough depth to hold its own on a full wall. In daylight, the color can appear clearer and more blue-green, while lower or warmer light may bring out its muted, subdued side. It suits bathrooms, laundry rooms, porch ceilings, or built-in cabinetry, especially alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and sandy beige textiles. For a bolder pairing, use Florida Keys Blue with deep charcoal or warm terracotta accents.

LRV of Florida Keys Blue
Florida Keys Blue has an LRV of 35.4% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 35.4%, 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.
