Seabrook
What Seabrook Actually Looks Like
Seabrook is a pale aqua that sits right at the edge of blue and green. It reads as a soft, washed-out teal in most daylight conditions, light enough to feel almost ethereal on a large wall. It never goes dark or moody. Think of a shallow tide pool or sea glass worn smooth: that cool, soft clarity is what you get.
Seabrook Undertones
The hex and RGB data confirm what the eye already suspects: Seabrook carries both blue and green in roughly equal measure, with a subtle gray modulation that keeps it from tipping into candy territory. In warm incandescent light it can shift slightly greener. In cool north-facing light it reads a bit more blue and can feel chilly. Natural daylight is where it settles into its most balanced, aqua reading.
Where Seabrook Works Best
Because its LRV is on the higher end, Seabrook reflects a good amount of light and works well in rooms that need visual breathing room. Bedrooms, bathrooms, and sunrooms are natural fits. It can feel slightly clinical in a very stark, modern space with no warm wood or textile to balance it, so plan your furnishings accordingly.
Where to put Seabrook
Seabrook brings a calm, restful quality to a bedroom. Pair it with linen bedding in warm off-white and light oak furniture to keep the palette from feeling too cool at night under artificial light.
In a bathroom with white tile and chrome fixtures, Seabrook reinforces a clean, spa-like feel. Add a warm wood vanity or natural fiber mat to prevent the room from reading sterile.
With abundant natural light flooding in, Seabrook is at its best here. It reflects that light generously and connects the interior visually to an outdoor garden or waterfront view.
Soft enough to avoid being overwhelming, Seabrook works well in a kid's room as a gender-neutral, calming backdrop. It pairs naturally with white built-ins and bright, primary-colored accents.
What to Pair With Seabrook
No coordinating colors were specified in our database for Seabrook 750. As a general pairing guide: warm whites on trim keep it from reading cold, natural wood tones ground the aqua without fighting it, and soft corals or terracottas in accessories give it a complementary contrast that feels coastal without being kitschy.

Colors that clash with Seabrook
If an adjacent room or open-plan area carries a warm yellow or golden paint, Seabrook will read unexpectedly cool and even a little gray by contrast, and the two colors will fight across the threshold.
Pairing Seabrook with a cool blue-gray tile or laminate floor doubles down on the coolness and can make the room feel cold and uninviting, especially in a north-facing space.
Strong purple accessories or upholstery can clash with Seabrook's green-blue base, creating an unintended color tension that reads as unresolved rather than bold.
Common questions
Seabrook's color code is 750, its hex is #B7DFE2, and its precise LRV is 68.46, placing it firmly in the light-color range where it reflects a significant amount of light.
Yes. Seabrook 750 is available in both Benjamin Moore interior and exterior product lines, so you can use it on interior walls and on exterior surfaces like shutters or a front door.
Yes. Under warm incandescent or soft-white bulbs it will shift slightly greener and feel cozier. Under cool LED or fluorescent lighting it will lean more blue and can feel quite cold. If your room relies heavily on artificial light, test a large sample and observe it under your actual bulbs before committing.
Eggshell is the standard recommendation for most interior walls: it is easy to clean and adds just enough sheen to help a light aqua like Seabrook stay lively without becoming reflective enough to show every imperfection. Use a flat or matte finish if your walls have texture or flaws you want to minimize.
