What color is Benjamin Moore Sea Star?

Benjamin Moore Sea Star 2123-30 is a muted blue-green with a noticeable gray cast, giving it a softened, medium-light presence on the wall. Its equal blue and green influence keeps the color cool, while the subdued saturation prevents it from reading overly coastal or bright. In clear daylight, Sea Star shows more of its blue-green character; in dimmer rooms, it can settle into a calm slate-gray impression. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, and built-in cabinetry where a quiet wash of color is wanted without strong contrast. Pair it with warm off-whites, charcoal details, weathered oak, or brushed brass for a grounded finish.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 32.99%, 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.
