Inchyra Blue vs Red Earth
Both are Farrow & Ball colors. Inchyra Blue reads as blue-grey, while Red Earth reads as pink-red — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 28 vs 13, Red Earth will read as the brighter of the two — a 15-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Inchyra Blue's cool character against Red Earth's warm — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 44.2, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. Below you'll find 4 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Inchyra Blue vs Red Earth in Real Spaces
4 real rooms side by side. Seeing Inchyra Blue and Red Earth 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
Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. Red Earth returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
Bedroom
Bedroom walls are often seen under warm artificial light, a context that shifts both colors from how they look on a chip. The LRV gap is large enough that Red Earth will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Inchyra Blue would.
Dining Room
Dining room light is typically the warmest in the house, which shifts both colors toward the red end of the spectrum compared to daylight. Red Earth reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Inchyra Blue.
Bathroom
Bathrooms amplify color — the enclosed space and reflective surfaces make what reads subtle elsewhere feel more present here. The LRV gap is large enough that Red Earth will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Inchyra Blue would.

Inchyra Blue vs Red Earth Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Inchyra Blue on one side and Red Earth on the other.
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.
