French Canvas vs Icicle
French Canvas and Icicle come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. The 8-point LRV gap — 82 for Icicle vs 74 for French Canvas — means Icicle will open up a space more effectively. Where French Canvas leans yellow, Icicle reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 4.4 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.
