Niagara Falls vs Ammonite

Niagara FallsBenjamin MoorevsAmmoniteFarrow & BallΔE 31.6Very different colors

Niagara Falls is a Benjamin Moore color while Ammonite comes from Farrow & Ball. Hue-wise, Niagara Falls belongs to the blue family and Ammonite to the beige-greige family. At LRV 69 vs 32, Ammonite will read as the brighter of the two — a 37-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Niagara Falls's cool character against Ammonite's warm — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 31.6, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. 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.
