Benjamin Moore

Pumpkin Blush

2156-20

Pumpkin Blush by Benjamin Moore is a deep pumpkin orange grounded by toasty brown undertones, which keep it from reading as overly bright. It has an LRV of 26.86, placing it in the lower-medium reflectance range and giving it a warm, substantial presence on walls. This shade works well in living rooms or dining areas where a warm focal point is needed.

Pairing it with Benjamin Moore's Revere Pewter or Simply White provides neutral balance, while deeper companions like Hale Navy and Kendall Charcoal offer strong tonal contrast against its orange base.
