Benjamin Moore

Vero Beach Tan

1085

Vero Beach Tan (Benjamin Moore) is a medium-dark brown with distinct orange undertones that shift it toward a warm, earthy reading. With an LRV of 18.99, it reflects relatively little light, making it a heavier color that will read as deep and grounded on walls. The orange base prevents it from appearing ashy or cool and instead gives it a clear warm bias.

It works well alongside Benjamin Moore's White Dove, Hale Navy, Golden Straw, Chestertown Buff, and Saybrook Sage, supporting both contrast-driven and analogous color schemes.

Vero Beach Tan in Different Light

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.
