York Gray vs Warm Putty
Where York Gray belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Warm Putty is a Valspar color. Both sit in the beige-greige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Warm Putty (LRV 65) reflects noticeably more light than York Gray (LRV 59), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.8 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

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.
