Grand Canyon Red vs Maritime White

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Grand Canyon Red belongs to the pink-red family and Maritime White to the beige-white family. Maritime White (LRV 72) reflects noticeably more light than Grand Canyon Red (LRV 11), a difference of 60 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean red, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 62.2, 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. 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.
