Adams Gold vs Straw Hat
Adams Gold and Straw Hat come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Adams Gold reads as beige-yellow, while Straw Hat reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 58 vs 57 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Adams Gold leans yellow, Straw Hat reads red — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 3.1 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
