What color is Benjamin Moore Sea Haze?
Benjamin Moore Sea Haze 2137-50 is a light, muted gray with a noticeable soft green cast and a faint earthy warmth. Its low saturation keeps the color restrained, so it reads more like a weathered gray-green than a traditional sage. In bright natural light, Sea Haze can appear pale and airy, while lower or warmer lighting may bring out its subtle olive undertone. It is well suited to bedrooms, bathrooms, and quiet living areas, especially alongside creamy whites, pale oak, limestone, and brushed brass. For contrast, pair this shade with deeper charcoal, forest green, or warm black accents.

What are Benjamin Moore Sea Haze undertones?
Sea Haze is a mid-light, very muted gray that reads as softly green-leaning rather than stark or blue-gray. The supplied digital color sample shows only a subtle yellow-green bias, so the green cast may appear restrained and can shift with surrounding colors and light. Benjamin Moore describes it as a gray with soft green undertones, which fits its overall gray main family while explaining the gentle green influence. Warm artificial light may bring out a slightly softer, warmer cast, while cool daylight can make the gray and green notes appear cleaner.

Lighter shades
Darker shades
Complementary color scheme
This color scheme is a combination of two shades that are opposite each other on the color wheel. The high contrast between these colors creates a vibrant and dynamic visual effect. For the color Sea Haze with a orange hue, complementary colors are those with a blue hue close to 252, such as Benjamin Moore Approaching Storm and Iced Lavender.
LRV of Sea Haze
Sea Haze has an LRV of 45.36% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 45.36%, 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.
