Tucson Winds vs S 1005-Y60R
Tucson Winds (Benjamin Moore) and S 1005-Y60R (NCS) come from different manufacturers. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. The 5-point LRV gap — 70 for S 1005-Y60R vs 65 for Tucson Winds — means S 1005-Y60R will open up a space more effectively. Where Tucson Winds leans red, S 1005-Y60R reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 2.4 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room.
