Alabaster vs Calm
Alabaster and Calm come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Alabaster reads as beige-greige, while Calm reads as greige-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 9-point LRV gap — 85 for Alabaster vs 76 for Calm — means Alabaster will open up a space more effectively. Where Alabaster leans yellow, Calm reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 4.0 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.
