Teak vs French Gray
Teak (Benjamin Moore) and French Gray (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Teak reads as beige, while French Gray reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 43-point LRV gap — 43 for French Gray vs 0 for Teak — means French Gray will open up a space more effectively. Both share a warm character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 39.8 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
