Benjamin Moore

Tucson Red

1300 / CC-94

Tucson Red is a deeply saturated red with noticeable orange undertones, registering an LRV of 14.43, which places it firmly in the low-reflectance range. The orange influence gives it an earthy, warm-leaning character distinct from cooler or blue-based reds. It reads as a strong, grounded color on walls and works well as an accent surrounded by lighter tones.

Within the Benjamin Moore line, it coordinates with White Dove, Manchester Tan, Essex Green, Hale Navy, and Autumn Cover, allowing for both tonal warmth and deliberate contrast in a room's color scheme.
