Mexican Tile vs Spiced Apple Cider

Mexican Tile and Spiced Apple Cider come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Mexican Tile reads as beige-pink, while Spiced Apple Cider reads as pink-red — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 4-point LRV gap — 30 for Mexican Tile vs 27 for Spiced Apple Cider — means Mexican Tile will open up a space more effectively. Both share a red character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. ΔE 8.3 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same 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.
