Amarillo vs Mizzle
Amarillo (Benjamin Moore) and Mizzle (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Amarillo belongs to the beige-yellow family and Mizzle to the grey family. The 17-point LRV gap — 68 for Amarillo vs 52 for Mizzle — means Amarillo will open up a space more effectively. Where Amarillo leans yellow, Mizzle reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 54.0 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.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Amarillo on one side and Mizzle 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.
