Pistachio vs Wild Orchid
Pistachio and Wild Orchid come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Pistachio reads as green, while Wild Orchid reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 43-point LRV gap — 69 for Pistachio vs 25 for Wild Orchid — means Pistachio will open up a space more effectively. Where Pistachio leans green, Wild Orchid reads purple — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 47.7 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
