Bennington Gray vs Senses in Real Spaces

2 real rooms side by side. Bennington Gray and Senses are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.

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