Read from the numbersGrant Beige is the lighter of the two at LRV 55.5, 4.3 points above Groundhog Day at LRV 51.2. Both read warm. Groundhog Day is a pinks, Grant Beige a neutrals. For a whole room, Grant Beige is the safer, more forgiving choice thanks to its higher LRV, while Groundhog Day 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.
Grant Beige balances beige and grey in nearly equal measure — the textbook greige. A slight yellow-gold undertone adds warmth, while the grey content keeps it from ever reading sweet or sandy. It is the safe, sophisticated neutral that anchors a whole-home palette.
