Flax vs Mudslide

FlaxBenjamin MoorevsMudslideBenjamin MooreΔE 16.0 — Distinct difference

Flax and Mudslide come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Both sit in the beige-pink family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 16-point LRV gap — 42 for Flax vs 25 for Mudslide — means Flax 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 16.0 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.

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.
