Peeps vs Pigeon
Where Peeps belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, Pigeon is a Farrow & Ball color. Peeps reads as beige, while Pigeon reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Peeps (LRV 68) reflects noticeably more light than Pigeon (LRV 51), a difference of 17 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. With a ΔE of 67.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Peeps vs Pigeon in Real Spaces
3 real rooms side by side. Seeing Peeps and Pigeon in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The LRV gap is large enough that Peeps will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Pigeon would.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Peeps reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Pigeon.

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.
