Every room, each color

The difference

Read from the numbers

Honey Hut is the lighter of the two at LRV 61.51, 18 points above Coral Spice at LRV 43.46. Both read warm. Coral Spice is a orange, Honey Hut a pink. For a whole room, Honey Hut is the safer, more forgiving choice thanks to its higher LRV, while Coral Spice is the bolder pick.

How they read

In their own words

Coral Spice 2170-40 is a mid-tone coral from Benjamin Moore's Color Preview collection, which the brand describes as "a vivacious shade of coral with a feel-good vibe". Its LRV is 43.46.

Honey Hut is a pale dusty pink with enough grey-beige in it to stay sophisticated. At LRV 62 it is light and airy, but it is unmistakably pink — more so than Bride to Be, less so than Pink Cloud. It has the softness of a powder puff and none of the sugar.
