Carrington Beige vs Mizzle
Where Carrington Beige belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Mizzle is a Farrow & Ball color. Carrington Beige reads as beige-yellow, while Mizzle reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Carrington Beige (LRV 62) reflects noticeably more light than Mizzle (LRV 52), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Carrington Beige runs yellow while Mizzle is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 9.3 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.
Carrington Beige vs Mizzle in Real Spaces
3 real rooms side by side. Carrington Beige and Mizzle 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 Carrington Beige will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Mizzle 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. Carrington Beige reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Mizzle.
Dining Room
A dining room lit by a dimmed pendant or candles is one of the most forgiving environments for paint — warm light softens almost everything. Carrington Beige returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

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.
