Benjamin Moore Tidal Wave 2061-50 is a light-to-medium blue with a noticeable aqua cast, giving it a clean, cool appearance without reading overly icy. Its moderate saturation keeps the color present on a wall, while the softened value prevents it from feeling as intense as a bright coastal blue. In daylight, Tidal Wave can look clearer and more blue-forward; warmer artificial lighting may make its underlying green-blue character feel gentler. It suits bathrooms, sunrooms, laundry rooms, and children’s spaces, or can bring a fresh note to kitchen cabinetry. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale gray tile, light oak, or sandy beige textiles for contrast that lets the blue stay in focus.
