Weimaraner vs Pigeon
Where Weimaraner belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Pigeon is a Farrow & Ball color. Weimaraner reads as greige-grey, while Pigeon reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Pigeon (LRV 51) reflects noticeably more light than Weimaraner (LRV 31), a difference of 20 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Weimaraner runs red while Pigeon is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 6.8 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Weimaraner vs Pigeon in Real Spaces
1 real room side by side. Weimaraner and Pigeon are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Pigeon reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Weimaraner.

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.
