Taro vs Wish

TaroBenjamin MoorevsWishBenjamin MooreΔE 54.3 — Very different colors

Both are Benjamin Moore colors. Hue-wise, Taro belongs to the pink-purple family and Wish to the greige-grey family. At LRV 59 vs 9, Wish will read as the brighter of the two — a 50-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Taro's purple character against Wish's red — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 54.3, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
