Benjamin Moore

Soft Cranberry

2094-40

Soft Cranberry registers as a muted tannish pink with noticeable red undertones that warm its overall appearance. At an LRV of 31.53, it absorbs a significant portion of light, producing a medium-depth wall color that reads heavier in rooms with limited natural light. The red-brown base distinguishes it from cooler pinks and places it closer to terra cotta territory.

It works alongside Benjamin Moore Mesa Verde Tan and Kingsport Gray for analogous warmth, while Hale Navy provides strong cool contrast. Lighter companions like Pale Oak or White Dove help offset its depth.
