Guacamole vs Moonshine

GuacamoleBenjamin MoorevsMoonshineBenjamin MooreΔE 46.8Very different colors

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Guacamole belongs to the beige-greige family and Moonshine to the grey family. Moonshine (LRV 67) reflects noticeably more light than Guacamole (LRV 13), a difference of 54 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Guacamole runs yellow while Moonshine is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 46.8, 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.
