Beacon Hill Damask vs Lightning Storm

Beacon Hill Damask and Lightning Storm come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. These are both beige-yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-yellow to land. The 12-point LRV gap — 80 for Lightning Storm vs 68 for Beacon Hill Damask — means Lightning Storm will open up a space more effectively. Both share a yellow character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 11.9 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
