Benjamin Moore

Tomato Tango

CSP-1145

Tomato Tango (BM) is a saturated red with pronounced warm undertones that push it toward a true tomato hue. At an LRV of 15.84, it reads as a bold, low-reflectance color that will dominate a wall surface and anchor a room's palette. The warm base carries slight orange influence, which keeps the red from reading too cool or berry-toned.

It coordinates well with Benjamin Moore's Simply White, Cloud Cover, Black Forest Green, Autumn Leaf, and Golden Retriever, offering options that range from high-contrast neutral pairings to warm analogous groupings.
