Split Pea vs Sand yellow
Split Pea (Benjamin Moore) and Sand yellow (RAL Classic) come from different manufacturers. These are both beige-yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-yellow to land. The 6-point LRV gap — 45 for Sand yellow vs 39 for Split Pea — means Sand yellow will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 19.6 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

Digital color is approximate.
