Mink vs Paper
Where Mink belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Paper is a Tikkurila color. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. Paper (LRV 88) reflects noticeably more light than Mink (LRV 7), a difference of 81 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. With a ΔE of 65.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

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.
