Patina vs Red Earth
Patina (Benjamin Moore) and Red Earth (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Patina reads as beige-pink, while Red Earth reads as pink-red — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 3-point LRV gap — 28 for Red Earth vs 25 for Patina — means Red Earth will open up a space more effectively. Where Patina leans red, Red Earth reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 5.7 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Patina vs Red Earth Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Patina on one side and Red Earth on the other.
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.
