The difference
Read from the numbersGroundhog Day is the lighter of the two at LRV 51.2, 17.9 points above Creekbed at LRV 33.34. Both read warm. Groundhog Day is a pink, Creekbed a beige. For a whole room, Groundhog Day is the safer, more forgiving choice thanks to its higher LRV, while Creekbed is the bolder pick.
How they read
In their own wordsA warm pink with just enough grey to keep it adult, Groundhog Day turns afternoon light the color of the inside of a shell. Drenched across walls and ceiling it reads like aged plaster; used on a single wall it warms a room without ever announcing itself as pink.
Creekbed is a true taupe — grey and brown balanced so evenly that it reads as neither, with a faint pink warmth underneath. At LRV 33 it is a mid-tone, dark enough to feel like a color and light enough to keep a small room from closing in. It is the shade of wet river stone.
