Benjamin Moore

Riverbank

CSP-355

Riverbank is a deep, warm red-brown with earthy undertones, registering an LRV of 18.4, which places it firmly in the low-reflectance range and makes it read as a saturated, grounding tone on walls. The brown base tempers the red, pulling it toward a muted terracotta character rather than a true red. In rooms with limited natural light, it can appear notably darker and more uniformly brown.

Pair it with Cedar Key or Lenox Tan for tonal warmth, use Smoke or Nimbus for cooler contrast, or trim with Simply White to sharpen its depth.
