Niveous vs Parish White
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Niveous reads as beige-yellow, while Parish White reads as beige-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Parish White (LRV 81) reflects noticeably more light than Niveous (LRV 75), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean yellow, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 3.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

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.
