The difference

Read from the numbers

Revere Pewter is the lighter of the two at LRV 55.05, 21.7 points above Creekbed at LRV 33.34. Both read warm. Both belong to the beige family. For a whole room, Revere Pewter is the safer, more forgiving choice thanks to its higher LRV, while Creekbed is the bolder pick.

How they read

In their own words

Revere Pewter (HC-172) is Benjamin Moore's iconic greige — a warm gray-beige with a soft olive-green undertone. At LRV 55.5 it's slightly deeper than the popular Sherwin-Williams greiges, giving it more presence on a wall.

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.
