Taupetone vs Lilac Gray
Taupetone (Benjamin Moore) and Lilac Gray (Valspar) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Taupetone belongs to the beige-greige family and Lilac Gray to the grey family. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 23 vs 25 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. ΔE 9.7 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Taupetone vs Lilac Gray Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Taupetone on one side and Lilac Gray 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.
