Benjamin Moore

Rustique

AF-275

Rustique is a heavily saturated reddish-brown with pronounced brick and oxide undertones, registering an LRV of 9.69, which places it among the darker end of the spectrum with minimal light return. The red bias is strong enough to read distinctly warm even under cool artificial lighting. It functions best on accent surfaces or in contained spaces where its depth will not close down sightlines.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore Cream Fleece or Stone House for necessary lightness, Hale Navy for a contrasting cool anchor, Salamander for analogous depth, and Soft Chamois to temper its intensity on trim.
