Benjamin Moore

Tangelo

2017-30

Tangelo (Benjamin Moore) is a bright, warm orange with an LRV of 44.9, placing it in the mid-reflectance range where it retains strong chromatic intensity without reading as dark. Its undertone is a clean yellow-orange with minimal red shift, giving it a distinctly citrus character. Benjamin Moore Blue Danube and Cool Aqua serve as complementary cool counterpoints, while Golden Honey and Redstone offer analogous warm transitions.

White Dove works as a neutral trim pairing to maintain the orange as the dominant chromatic element on a surface.
