Tandoori vs Bancha
Tandoori (Benjamin Moore) and Bancha (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Tandoori reads as beige, while Bancha reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 16 vs 13 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Tandoori leans red, Bancha reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 42.1 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Tandoori vs Bancha Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Tandoori on one side and Bancha on the other.
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.
