Mountain MistBenjamin MoorevsStrawberryBenjamin MooreΔE 29.1 — Very different colors

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Mountain Mist reads as blue-grey, while Strawberry reads as pink — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Mountain Mist (LRV 71) reflects noticeably more light than Strawberry (LRV 50), a difference of 21 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Mountain Mist runs green and blue while Strawberry is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 29.1, 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. 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.
