Andes Summit vs Downtown

Andes SummitBenjamin MoorevsDowntownBenjamin MooreΔE 29.5 — Very different colors

Andes Summit and Downtown come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Andes Summit belongs to the blue-grey family and Downtown to the greige-grey family. The 19-point LRV gap — 33 for Downtown vs 14 for Andes Summit — means Downtown will open up a space more effectively. Where Andes Summit leans blue, Downtown reads red — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 29.5 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.
