Benjamin Moore

Rich Coral

28

Rich Coral sits at the intersection of orange and red, producing a warm, assertive tone with moderate saturation. An LRV of 24.43 places it in the lower-mid range, reflecting limited light and reading as a solid, grounded hue rather than a bright pastel. The orange component keeps it from appearing as a true red, lending a terra cotta warmth.

Hale Navy and Black Forest Green offer strong cool-toned contrast against its warmth. Manchester Tan and Stonington Gray serve as restrained neutral backdrops, while White Dove lightens surrounding surfaces to balance the overall palette.

Rich Coral in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

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.
