Flame vs Orange Aurora
Flame (Benjamin Moore) and Orange Aurora (Little Greene) come from different manufacturers. Both sit in the pink-red family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 4-point LRV gap — 26 for Orange Aurora vs 21 for Flame — means Orange Aurora will open up a space more effectively. Both share a red character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 12.2 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.

Flame vs Orange Aurora Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Flame on one side and Orange Aurora 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.
