Andes Summit vs Carter Gray
Andes Summit and Carter Gray come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Andes Summit belongs to the blue-grey family and Carter Gray to the greige-grey family. The 8-point LRV gap — 22 for Carter Gray vs 14 for Andes Summit — means Carter Gray will open up a space more effectively. Where Andes Summit leans blue, Carter Gray reads red — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 19.8 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
