Cedar Key vs Celestial
Cedar Key is a Benjamin Moore color while Celestial comes from Cloverdale Paint. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. With LRVs of 61 and 62, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. With a ΔE of 0.8, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
