About Orange Burst
Orange Burst (2015-20) is a deep, bold orange from Benjamin Moore that leans peach. With an LRV of 34, Orange Burst absorbs more light than it reflects, so it works best in rooms with good natural light or where you want a cozier feel.
In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Orange Burst's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for living rooms, bedrooms and accent walls. Next to Startling Orange (2016-10), it's cooler and more muted.
