What color is Benjamin Moore Naples Blue?

Benjamin Moore Naples Blue 2057-30 is a deep blue-green with a clear teal cast, giving it more energy than a standard navy. Its cool, moderately saturated character reads crisp in daylight, while lower light brings out its darker, inky side. Use it on a powder room wall, built-in bookcase, or kitchen island when the room needs a concentrated hit of color. Naples Blue pairs well with warm white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, and brushed brass hardware. For a sharper contrast, add soft coral, terracotta, or creamy peach accents.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 14.51%, 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.
