Luxurious Gold vs Showtime

Luxurious GoldBenjamin MoorevsShowtimeBenjamin MooreΔE 5.3 — Noticeable difference

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Luxurious Gold belongs to the beige-yellow family and Showtime to the beige family. Showtime (LRV 54) reflects noticeably more light than Luxurious Gold (LRV 49), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Luxurious Gold runs yellow while Showtime is decidedly yellow and red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 5.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. 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. 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.
