Doily vs Tranquil Dawn
Where Doily belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Tranquil Dawn is a Dulux color. Hue-wise, Doily belongs to the beige-greige family and Tranquil Dawn to the green-grey family. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (56 vs 55), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. Doily runs yellow while Tranquil Dawn is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 6.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Doily on one side and Tranquil Dawn on the other.
Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
