Monticello Peach

18

Monticello Peach (018) is a mid-tone peach that combines pink and orange undertones in a balanced ratio. With an LRV of 46.86, it sits near the center of the light-dark spectrum, making it noticeable without being overpowering. The pink undertone pulls it away from pure coral territory, while the orange keeps it warmer than a typical rose.

For coordinating Benjamin Moore colors, Swiss Coffee (OC-45) and White Heron (OC-57) provide lighter neutral backdrops, Ticonderoga Taupe (992) introduces an earthy contrast, and Metallic Silver (2132-60) offers a cool gray counterpoint that highlights the warmth in this peach.
