Corduroy vs Guacamole
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Corduroy belongs to the beige family and Guacamole to the beige-greige family. Corduroy (LRV 22) reflects noticeably more light than Guacamole (LRV 13), a difference of 9 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Corduroy runs red while Guacamole is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 28.7, 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.
