The difference

Read from the numbers

Georgian Brick is the lighter of the two at LRV 15.46, 7 points above Dinner Party at LRV 8.43. Both read warm. Dinner Party is a red, Georgian Brick a orange. For a whole room, Georgian Brick is the safer, more forgiving choice thanks to its higher LRV, while Dinner Party is the bolder pick.

How they read

In their own words

Dinner Party AF-300 is a deep red from Benjamin Moore's Affinity collection, described as "a deep, understated red that can be used in everyday spaces, as well as those reserved for special occasions". Its LRV is 8.43.

Georgian Brick is a Historical Colors red-orange that Benjamin Moore describes as 'a rustic blend of red and orange'. It is the colour of weathered brick — warm, a little dusty, and far more livable than a true red.
