Old Canal vs Treron
Where Old Canal belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Treron is a Farrow & Ball color. Old Canal reads as beige, while Treron reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Treron (LRV 25) reflects noticeably more light than Old Canal (LRV 22), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Old Canal runs red while Treron is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 20.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
