Benjamin Moore

Tropical Orange

2170-20

Tropical Orange (BM) is a saturated, warm orange with clear red undertones that push it toward a burnt or blood-orange character rather than a pure citrus tone. Its LRV of 20.89 makes it a deeper shade that absorbs considerable light, giving it visual weight on walls. The red shift in the base means it will appear warmer and more complex under incandescent lighting.

For coordinated schemes, it pairs with Benjamin Moore's Blue Lagoon, Deep Caviar, White Dove, Lemon Chiffon, and Golden Honey, providing options from sharp contrast to analogous warmth.
