Azurite vs Soft Pumpkin
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Azurite reads as blue, while Soft Pumpkin reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Soft Pumpkin (LRV 42) reflects noticeably more light than Azurite (LRV 21), a difference of 21 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Azurite runs blue while Soft Pumpkin is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 61.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. 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.
