Toasted Marshmallow

1049

Toasted Marshmallow (Benjamin Moore) is a medium-dark brown with warm golden and caramel undertones, carrying an LRV of 16.68. The golden bias gives it a tawny, amber-leaning quality rather than a gray or red-brown character. It works alongside Manchester Tan and Lenox Tan for a tonal warm-neutral scheme, Hale Navy or Black Forest Green for high-contrast pairings, and Simply White or Cloud White as crisp lighter tones that draw out its golden base without flattening its depth.

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.
