Antique White vs Pigeon
Antique White (Behr) and Pigeon (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Antique White reads as beige-white, while Pigeon reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 22-point LRV gap — 73 for Antique White vs 51 for Pigeon — means Antique White will open up a space more effectively. Where Antique White leans red, Pigeon reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 23.4 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
