Distant Gray vs Raspberry Glaze paint color comparison

Distant Gray vs Raspberry Glaze

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Distant Gray reads as green-grey, while Raspberry Glaze reads as pink-red — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Distant Gray (LRV 88) reflects noticeably more light than Raspberry Glaze (LRV 14), a difference of 75 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Distant Gray runs neutral while Raspberry Glaze is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 72.7, 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.
