Benjamin Moore

Marmalade

2016-40

Marmalade is a warm medium orange with strong golden-yellow undertones and just enough red to keep it from reading as pure amber. Its LRV of 55.95 places it in the mid-light range, so it reflects a fair amount of light while maintaining saturated warmth. The color intensifies under incandescent lighting and mellows slightly in daylight.

It pairs well with Golden Retriever and Apricot Cream for a tonal warm scheme. Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal provide sharp contrast. White Dove and Classic Gray help moderate the warmth when used on adjacent surfaces.
