Glacial Till vs French Gray
Where Glacial Till belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, French Gray is a Farrow & Ball color. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. Glacial Till (LRV 47) reflects noticeably more light than French Gray (LRV 43), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Glacial Till runs red while French Gray is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 4.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

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.
