Spanish Red vs Cedar Chest
Spanish Red is a Benjamin Moore color while Cedar Chest comes from PPG. These are both pink-reds, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink-red to land. At LRV 13 vs 10, Spanish Red will read as the brighter of the two — a 3-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 3.7, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.
