Hale Orange vs Yam
Hale Orange (Benjamin Moore) and Yam (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Hale Orange reads as beige-pink, while Yam reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 25 vs 23 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Hale Orange leans red, Yam reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 4.2 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.

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.
