Ivory Porcelain vs Almond Paste

Ivory PorcelainBenjamin MoorevsAlmond PastePPGΔE 1.3Subtle difference

Ivory Porcelain (Benjamin Moore) and Almond Paste (PPG) come from different manufacturers. Ivory Porcelain reads as beige-yellow, while Almond Paste reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 70 vs 70 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. A ΔE of 1.3 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room. 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.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
