Amarillo vs Squish-Squash
Both are Benjamin Moore colors. These are both beige-yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-yellow to land. At LRV 78 vs 68, Squish-Squash will read as the brighter of the two — a 9-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. They share a yellow quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. At ΔE 25.8, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Amarillo on one side and Squish-Squash on the other.
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.
