What color is Benjamin Moore Tomato Tango?
Benjamin Moore Tomato Tango CSP-1145 is a saturated, warm red with a noticeable earthy orange cast. Its medium-dark depth gives it the presence of a painted focal point, especially on a dining room wall, front door, or kitchen island. In bright daylight, Tomato Tango can appear clearer and more animated, while lower light brings out its deeper, clay-like red character. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, aged brass, or dark charcoal for contrast. On larger walls, it benefits from ample natural light or lighter neighboring surfaces to keep the room from feeling too enclosed.

LRV of Tomato Tango
Tomato Tango has an LRV of 15.84% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little light. Why LRV is important?
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 15.84%, 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.
