MortarBehrvsWeathered MossBehrΔE NaNVery different colors

Both are Behr colors. Hue-wise, Mortar belongs to the grey family and Weathered Moss to the grey-red family. At LRV 67 vs 49, Mortar will read as the brighter of the two — a 18-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. They share a yellow quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. At ΔE NaN, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
