Alabaster vs Himalayan Trek

Alabaster and Himalayan Trek come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Alabaster reads as beige-greige, while Himalayan Trek reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 38-point LRV gap — 85 for Alabaster vs 47 for Himalayan Trek — means Alabaster will open up a space more effectively. Where Alabaster leans warm, Himalayan Trek reads red — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 19.6 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
