Dark Celery vs Snow on the Mountain
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. These are both beige-yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-yellow to land. Snow on the Mountain (LRV 80) reflects noticeably more light than Dark Celery (LRV 21), a difference of 59 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Dark Celery runs yellow while Snow on the Mountain is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 55.7, 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.
