Benjamin Moore

Tangerine Melt

Tangerine Melt (Benjamin Moore) is a bold, medium-depth orange with warm undertones and an LRV of 34.95, making it a moderately reflective color with high saturation. It reads as a clean, direct orange without significant red or yellow skew. For contrast pairings, Benjamin Moore Hale Navy and Iron Mountain introduce cool, dark counterpoints.

Golden Straw provides an analogous warm step, and Terra Cotta Tile offers a deeper, more muted earth-tone relative. Blue Hydrangea can serve as a cooler mid-tone complement to offset the warmth.
