Ryan Red vs Statement Red
Where Ryan Red belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Statement Red is a Jotun color. These are both pink-reds, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink-red to land. Ryan Red (LRV 18) reflects noticeably more light than Statement Red (LRV 15), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Ryan Red runs red while Statement Red is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 21.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
