Canyonlands

109 / HC-52

Canyonlands is a creamy orange with warm undertones. With an LRV of 50.15, it sits in the mid range and reads warm. It works in living rooms or dining areas where a soft orange is acceptable.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore Manchester Tan and White Dove for warm neutrals. Hale Navy, Wrought Iron, or Coral Gables add contrast or adjacent warmth. In warmer light, the undertone stays present and the color can deepen slightly.

Canyonlands in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
