What color is Benjamin Moore Meridian Blue?
Benjamin Moore Meridian Blue 761 is a clear, medium-depth blue with a noticeable turquoise cast, sitting between classic blue and aqua. Its clean saturation gives it a crisp presence on walls, especially in bathrooms, laundry rooms, sunrooms, or a coastal-inspired entry. In bright daylight, Meridian Blue can read more vivid and watery, while lower light brings out its deeper blue-green side. Pair it with fresh white trim, pale gray stone, light oak, or brushed nickel for a sharp, uncluttered look. It also makes a strong choice for a painted vanity, interior door, or built-in shelving when a full room of color feels like too much.

LRV of Meridian Blue
Meridian Blue has an LRV of 25.55% 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 25.55%, 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.
