Baffin Island vs Distant Valley

Baffin IslandBenjamin MoorevsDistant ValleyPPGΔE 1.1Subtle difference

Baffin Island is a Benjamin Moore color while Distant Valley comes from PPG. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. With LRVs of 46 and 47, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. With a ΔE of 1.1, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart. 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.
