How it reads

Seabrook is a light, clear aqua-blue — Benjamin Moore says it 'immediately conjures the sea', and that is fair. There is enough green in it to keep it from turning baby-blue, and at an LRV near 68 it bounces plenty of light while still reading unmistakably as colour.

On kitchen cabinetry it is fresh and slightly retro, and it flatters both white marble and warm brass. Keep the walls a soft white and let the wood floors bring the warmth.

Questions

Is Seabrook too bright for a whole kitchen?
On cabinets alone it is lively but not loud; on every wall it becomes a statement. Sample a large swatch in your own light first.
What white goes with Seabrook?
A soft white with a touch of warmth, like Swiss Coffee or White Dove, keeps it from feeling icy.
