Tomato Red vs Starfish
Tomato Red is a Benjamin Moore color while Starfish comes from Cloverdale Paint. These are both pink-reds, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink-red to land. At LRV 28 vs 17, Starfish will read as the brighter of the two — a 11-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 12.6, 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.
