Benjamin Moore

Creamy Orange

2166-50

Creamy Orange by Benjamin Moore is a soft, muted orange with warm undertones and a light, approachable quality. It has an LRV of 59, situating it in the mid-to-upper reflectance range, bright enough to keep a room airy but with enough color to register clearly on walls. The hue leans toward a light terracotta-peach rather than a vivid orange.

It pairs well with Benjamin Moore's White Dove, Simply White, Golden Straw, Lighthouse Landing, and Van Deusen Blue. It is functional in living rooms, kitchens, and casual dining areas.
