Corduroy vs Mexico
Where Corduroy belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Mexico is a Jotun color. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Mexico (LRV 35) reflects noticeably more light than Corduroy (LRV 22), a difference of 14 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Corduroy runs red while Mexico is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 18.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
