What Color Is Pool Party, Really?
Pool Party reads as a cool blue-green tone — mid-tone — versatile but shifts visibly with light. The notes below cover how Benjamin Moore 2059-50 behaves in different light and the closest matches at competing US brands.
Best Rooms and Uses for Pool Party
Pool Party is versatile enough for full rooms but has enough depth to anchor a space, so it suits living rooms, bedrooms and cabinetry alike. Blues calm a room, which makes them popular in bedrooms, bathrooms and home offices.
How Lighting Changes Pool Party
Pool Party sits in the mid-range at LRV 49, so it shifts visibly through the day — lighter and more open in morning light, deeper and moodier after dark. Its teal undertone is the part to watch: it gets picked up by whatever sits next to it, so test it against your trim, floor and the room's main light before committing. South-facing rooms will pull it lighter and warmer, while north light cools it down.
Most complaints about Pool Party are a light mismatch. Upload a photo of your actual room and see it on your walls — then ask for the same wall in north light or evening lamps before you buy a single sample.
