Knoxville Gray vs Peach Brandy

Knoxville GrayBenjamin MoorevsPeach BrandyBenjamin MooreΔE 50.2Very different colors

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Knoxville Gray reads as blue-grey, while Peach Brandy reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Peach Brandy (LRV 29) reflects noticeably more light than Knoxville Gray (LRV 16), a difference of 13 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Knoxville Gray runs blue while Peach Brandy is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 50.2, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. 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.
