Benjamin Moore

Pumpkin Cream

2168-20

Pumpkin Cream by Benjamin Moore is an intense orange deepened by brown undertones, giving it a spiced, earthy warmth rather than a purely citrus tone. Its LRV of 25.83 places it in the lower-medium reflectance range, so it absorbs a fair amount of light and reads with noticeable depth on the wall. It suits living rooms, dining areas, or accent applications in both traditional and contemporary layouts.

Benjamin Moore's Clay Beige and Philadelphia Cream help moderate its intensity, while Hale Navy and Salamander introduce contrasting cool tones for visual balance.

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.
