Sand Dollar vs Pastel Paper

Sand DollarBenjamin MoorevsPastel PaperPPGΔE 1.5Subtle difference

Sand Dollar is a Benjamin Moore color while Pastel Paper comes from PPG. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. With LRVs of 82 and 83, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. With a ΔE of 1.5, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
