Edgecomb Gray vs Mizzle
Where Edgecomb Gray belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Mizzle is a Farrow & Ball color. Edgecomb Gray reads as beige-greige, while Mizzle reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Edgecomb Gray (LRV 63) reflects noticeably more light than Mizzle (LRV 52), a difference of 11 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Edgecomb Gray runs red while Mizzle is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 7.4 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 7 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Edgecomb Gray vs Mizzle in Real Spaces
7 real rooms side by side. Edgecomb Gray and Mizzle are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The LRV gap is large enough that Edgecomb Gray will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Mizzle would.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Edgecomb Gray reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Mizzle.
Kitchen
In a kitchen, colors are seen under bright task lighting that amplifies undertones — what reads neutral elsewhere can show its hand here. Edgecomb Gray reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Mizzle.
Dining Room
A dining room lit by a dimmed pendant or candles is one of the most forgiving environments for paint — warm light softens almost everything. Edgecomb Gray returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
Bathroom
Bathrooms are one of the few spaces where you're genuinely enclosed by the paint color, which makes the choice between these two more consequential. Edgecomb Gray reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Mizzle.
House
Seen across an entire facade, subtle tonal differences become pronounced. What reads as nearly the same on a chip often reads as clearly different at scale. Edgecomb Gray reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Mizzle.
Kitchen Cabinets
Kitchen cabinets are constantly compared against adjacent materials, which means subtle differences between these two become much more visible. Edgecomb Gray reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Mizzle.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Edgecomb Gray on one side and Mizzle 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.
