Central ParkBenjamin MoorevsVale MistBenjamin MooreΔE 19.4 — Distinct difference

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Central Park reads as green-yellow, while Vale Mist reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Vale Mist (LRV 56) reflects noticeably more light than Central Park (LRV 44), a difference of 12 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Central Park runs green while Vale Mist is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 19.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

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.
