Creekbed vs Bleached Lichen 1
Where Creekbed belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Bleached Lichen 1 is a Dulux color. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. Bleached Lichen 1 (LRV 36) reflects noticeably more light than Creekbed (LRV 33), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Creekbed runs red while Bleached Lichen 1 is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 2.2, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
