Andes Summit vs Durango

Andes Summit and Durango come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Andes Summit belongs to the blue-grey family and Durango to the greige-grey family. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 14 vs 12 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Andes Summit leans blue, Durango reads red — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 18.7 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
