Pumpkin Seeds vs Sugar Cookie
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Sugar Cookie (LRV 86) reflects noticeably more light than Pumpkin Seeds (LRV 79), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean red, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 6.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
