Avant Garde vs Brazen
Avant Garde and Brazen come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. The 18-point LRV gap — 40 for Avant Garde vs 22 for Brazen — means Avant Garde will open up a space more effectively. Both share a red character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 16.2 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.

Avant Garde vs Brazen Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Avant Garde on one side and Brazen on the other.
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.
