Copley Gray vs Marmalade
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Copley Gray reads as greige-grey, while Marmalade reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Marmalade (LRV 56) reflects noticeably more light than Copley Gray (LRV 26), a difference of 30 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean red, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 46.1, 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.
