Sand Dunes vs Ammonite
Where Sand Dunes belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Ammonite is a Farrow & Ball color. Sand Dunes reads as beige, while Ammonite reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (70 vs 69), so they'll read as similarly Light in most lighting conditions. Sand Dunes runs red while Ammonite is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 9.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

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.
