Benjamin Moore

Somerset Peach

163

Somerset Peach is a high-LRV warm neutral at 75.54, carrying faint peach undertones that distinguish it from straightforward creams. The peach quality is restrained and reads as a slight warmth rather than a pronounced color, making it functional as a near-white in well-lit rooms. Under incandescent light, the warmth intensifies slightly.

Benjamin Moore White Wing and Soft Chamois maintain a similar tonal warmth for adjacent surfaces. Kendall Charcoal and Hale Navy provide sharp dark contrast, while Waterbury Green introduces a complementary cool-green counterpoint to the peach base.

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.
