Ruby Red vs Strawberry Red

Ruby RedBenjamin MoorevsStrawberry RedBenjamin MooreΔE 11.6 — Distinct difference

Both are Benjamin Moore colors. These are both pink-reds, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink-red to land. With LRVs of 16 and 16, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. They share a red quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. At ΔE 11.6, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
