Sausalito Sunset

Sausalito Sunset is a medium-saturation coral with clear orange undertones and an LRV of 46.87, placing it in the moderate reflectance range. It reads as warm and pigmented without being overly bright, maintaining enough body to register distinctly on walls. Under cool daylight it holds its coral identity, while warm artificial light may push it toward a peachier reading.

It coordinates with Benjamin Moore Hale Navy, Kendall Charcoal, Peach Parfait, White Dove, and Simply White, working in both warm analogous groupings and high-contrast pairings with deep neutrals.
