Ivory Tower vs S 0502-Y
Ivory Tower is a Benjamin Moore color while S 0502-Y comes from NCS. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. With LRVs of 86 and 87, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. The tonal difference — Ivory Tower's red character against S 0502-Y's warm — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. With a ΔE of 1.9, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
