What color is Benjamin Moore Tandoori?

Benjamin Moore Tandoori CSP-1105 is a deep, earthy burnt orange with a strong terracotta-brown base. Its rust-red character keeps the color grounded, while the orange warmth gives it noticeable presence on a wall or painted focal point. In bright daylight, Tandoori can read warmer and more clay-like; lower light tends to draw out its deeper brown-red side. It suits dining rooms, dens, entryways, or powder rooms where a saturated color can be used with intention. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm taupe, natural oak, aged brass, and woven materials such as leather, jute, or linen.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).

Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 15.63%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
