Benjamin Moore

Kangaroo

AF-145

Kangaroo is a warm-toned neutral with gray undertones that prevent it from reading as a straightforward tan or beige. Its LRV of 43.94 places it squarely in the mid-range, balancing light reflection and absorption evenly. The gray cast gives it a slightly weathered, stone-like quality that holds up well against both warm and cool accent colors.

White Dove and Classic Gray pair naturally as lighter neutrals, while Kendall Charcoal or Hale Navy deliver firm contrast. Palladian Blue or Guilford Green introduce cooler chromatic interest without clashing.

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.
