Canvas vs Chantilly Lace
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Canvas belongs to the beige family and Chantilly Lace to the green-white family. Chantilly Lace (LRV 90) reflects noticeably more light than Canvas (LRV 80), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Canvas runs red while Chantilly Lace is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 9.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Canvas vs Chantilly Lace in Real Spaces
3 real rooms side by side. Canvas and Chantilly Lace 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.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The LRV gap is large enough that Chantilly Lace will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Canvas would.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Chantilly Lace reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Canvas.
Bathroom
Bathrooms are one of the few spaces where you're genuinely enclosed by the paint color, which makes the choice between these two more consequential. Chantilly Lace reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Canvas.

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.
