Benjamin Moore

Louisiana Hot Sauce

CC-124

Louisiana Hot Sauce is a deep, saturated red with strong orange undertones that push it toward burnt terracotta rather than pure crimson. With an LRV of 10.77, it absorbs most ambient light and reads as a bold, dense color in any setting. Pairing it with Chantilly Lace on trim provides the sharpest possible contrast and keeps the overall scheme from feeling heavy.

Golden Honey and Rust extend the warm range in complementary directions. Gray Owl or Soft Chamois serve as neutral buffers that soften the impact on adjacent surfaces.
