Innocence vs Pigeon
Innocence (Benjamin Moore) and Pigeon (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Innocence reads as blue, while Pigeon reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 29-point LRV gap — 79 for Innocence vs 51 for Pigeon — means Innocence will open up a space more effectively. Where Innocence leans blue, Pigeon reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 29.9 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
