Benjamin Moore

Autumn Orange

2156-10

Autumn Orange is a bold golden-orange with hints of rust, registering an LRV of 24.15 that places it firmly in the lower reflectance zone. It carries substantial chromatic intensity, reading as a deep warm tone under both natural and artificial lighting. Benjamin Moore Kendall Charcoal and Hale Navy each provide high-contrast dark pairings from the cool side of the spectrum.

Golden Straw offers a lighter analogous step that shares its yellow base, and Spanish Red extends the palette into deeper red territory without clashing.
