Allspice vs Blue Macaw

AllspiceBenjamin MoorevsBlue MacawBenjamin MooreΔE 50.2 — Very different colors

Allspice and Blue Macaw come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Allspice reads as pink, while Blue Macaw reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 25-point LRV gap — 43 for Allspice vs 18 for Blue Macaw — means Allspice will open up a space more effectively. Where Allspice leans red, Blue Macaw reads blue — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 50.2 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
