Pasha Brown vs Market Square Shell
Pasha Brown (Behr) and Market Square Shell (Benjamin Moore) come from different manufacturers. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 48 vs 50 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Pasha Brown leans red, Market Square Shell reads yellow — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 4.1 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.
