Apricot Ice vs Pointing

Apricot IceBenjamin MoorevsPointingFarrow & BallΔE 2.2Subtle difference

Where Apricot Ice belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Pointing is a Farrow & Ball color. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Pointing (LRV 88) reflects noticeably more light than Apricot Ice (LRV 85), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Apricot Ice runs red while Pointing is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 2.2, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. 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.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
