Ivory Tower vs Pewter Green
Ivory Tower (Benjamin Moore) and Pewter Green (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Ivory Tower reads as beige, while Pewter Green reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 74-point LRV gap — 86 for Ivory Tower vs 12 for Pewter Green — means Ivory Tower will open up a space more effectively. Where Ivory Tower leans red, Pewter Green reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 55.1 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
