First Snowfall vs Sheraton Beige

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. First Snowfall reads as blue-grey, while Sheraton Beige reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. First Snowfall (LRV 74) reflects noticeably more light than Sheraton Beige (LRV 67), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. First Snowfall runs blue while Sheraton Beige is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 18.1, 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.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
