Benjamin Moore

Starburst Orange

2010-30

Starburst Orange is a high-saturation warm orange-red with an LRV of 25.95, placing it in the lower-mid reflectance range. It carries a distinct red bias that separates it from pure oranges, and under warm lighting it can push further toward coral. Its intensity makes it read as a strong focal point on any surface.

Simply White and White Dove work as neutralizing companions to temper its warmth, while Hale Navy provides a direct complementary contrast. Revere Pewter softens adjacent transitions, and Caliente echoes its warm energy at a deeper, redder register.

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.
