Aniline Red vs Guilford Green

Aniline RedBenjamin MoorevsGuilford GreenBenjamin MooreΔE 65.9Very different colors

Aniline Red and Guilford Green come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Aniline Red belongs to the pink-red family and Guilford Green to the beige-green family. The 44-point LRV gap — 57 for Guilford Green vs 14 for Aniline Red — means Guilford Green will open up a space more effectively. Where Aniline Red leans red, Guilford Green reads yellow — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 65.9 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.
