Deep in ThoughtBenjamin MoorevsPashminaBenjamin MooreΔE 20.5 — Distinct difference

Deep in Thought and Pashmina come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Deep in Thought belongs to the beige-yellow family and Pashmina to the beige-greige family. The 36-point LRV gap — 80 for Deep in Thought vs 44 for Pashmina — means Deep in Thought will open up a space more effectively. Where Deep in Thought leans warm, Pashmina reads red — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 20.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. 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.
