Driftwood vs Guilford Green
Driftwood and Guilford Green come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Driftwood belongs to the greige-grey family and Guilford Green to the beige-green family. The 32-point LRV gap — 57 for Guilford Green vs 25 for Driftwood — means Guilford Green will open up a space more effectively. Where Driftwood leans red, Guilford Green reads yellow — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 27.9 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.

Driftwood vs Guilford Green Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Driftwood on one side and Guilford Green on the other.
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.
