What color is Benjamin Moore Mediterranean Teal?

Benjamin Moore Mediterranean Teal 2123-10 is a deep, muted teal with a gray cast that keeps its blue-green character grounded. Its low-key saturation gives it a substantial, almost charcoal-like presence, especially in rooms with limited natural light. Brighter daylight brings out more of the green-blue undertone, while warm evening lighting can make it appear softer and more subdued. Use Mediterranean Teal on a study wall, built-in cabinetry, or a powder room for depth without the starkness of near-black. It pairs well with warm white trim, pale oak, aged brass, and soft clay or sand-colored textiles.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 10.56%, 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.
