Chateau vs Pelham Gray

Chateau and Pelham Gray come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. The 15-point LRV gap — 37 for Chateau vs 22 for Pelham Gray — means Chateau will open up a space more effectively. Both share a red character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 15.8 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
