What color is Benjamin Moore San Clemente Teal?

Benjamin Moore San Clemente Teal 730 is a light, softened teal with a clear aqua cast, shown here as #AAE0DF. Its high brightness keeps the color airy, while the blue-green mix gives it more presence than a standard pale blue. On walls, it can bring a fresh wash of color to bathrooms, sunrooms, laundry rooms, or a bedroom with plenty of natural light. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, or warm brass for contrast. San Clemente Teal also suits painted cabinetry or a single accent wall when a room needs gentle color without a dark, heavy finish.
