Camelot vs Plum Brown
Where Camelot belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Plum Brown is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. Camelot (LRV 10) reflects noticeably more light than Plum Brown (LRV 6), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Camelot runs red while Plum Brown is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 5.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

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.
