Wild Heart vs Pigeon
Where Wild Heart belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Pigeon is a Farrow & Ball color. Wild Heart reads as pink, while Pigeon reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (51 vs 51), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. Wild Heart runs red while Pigeon is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 28.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

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.
