Benjamin Moore

Citrus Blast

2018-30

Citrus Blast is a strong yellow-orange with a warm undertone and high chroma. Its LRV of 51.74 keeps it mid-bright and noticeable. It is best for accent walls, studios, or dining areas where a bold orange is appropriate.

White Diamond and Silver Satin cool the palette and keep trim light. Soleil and Spice Gold maintain the warm range, while Hale Navy adds contrast.
