Muted BlushDuluxvsAmmoniteFarrow & BallΔE 5.0Noticeable difference

The 5-point LRV gap — 69 for Ammonite vs 64 for Muted Blush — means Ammonite will open up a space more effectively. Both share a warm character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. ΔE 5.0 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.

Muted Blush vs Ammonite in Real Spaces

2 real rooms side by side. Muted Blush and Ammonite 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.

Living Room

A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Ammonite reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

Kitchen

Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. Ammonite has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

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.
