What color is Benjamin Moore Tropical Turquoise?

Benjamin Moore Tropical Turquoise 2052-30 is a saturated deep teal with a strong blue-green presence and a dark, grounded base. Its cool character reads especially clearly in daylight, while lower or warmer lighting can make the color appear richer and more subdued. Tropical Turquoise has enough depth for a dramatic dining room, powder room, or built-in cabinetry, rather than functioning as a light coastal aqua. Pair it with crisp white trim for contrast, or bring in pale oak, natural rattan, and brushed brass to add warmth around the blue-green hue. On an exterior door or shutter, this shade creates a bold focal point against soft off-white or light gray siding.

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 14.58%, 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.
