What color is Benjamin Moore Oasis Blue?
Benjamin Moore Oasis Blue 2049-20 is a deep blue-green with a muted, lightly smoky cast rather than a bright tropical teal. Its cool character is grounded by enough green to keep the color from reading as purely navy, especially in daylight. In lower light, Oasis Blue can appear darker and more subdued, making it a strong option for a dining room, study, powder room, or built-in cabinetry. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, aged brass, or sandy beige textiles to bring out its depth. On an exterior door or shutters, this shade provides crisp contrast against soft off-white or light gray siding.

LRV of Oasis Blue
Oasis Blue has an LRV of 9.37% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 9.37%, 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.
