Adirondack Blue vs Teton Blue
Both from Behr's palette. These are both blue-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue-grey to land. Teton Blue (LRV 31) reflects noticeably more light than Adirondack Blue (LRV 22), a difference of 9 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean blue, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 8.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 4 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Adirondack Blue vs Teton Blue in Real Spaces
4 real rooms side by side. Adirondack Blue and Teton Blue are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The LRV gap is large enough that Teton Blue will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Adirondack Blue would.
Dining Room
A dining room lit by a dimmed pendant or candles is one of the most forgiving environments for paint — warm light softens almost everything. Teton Blue returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
Bathroom
Bathrooms are one of the few spaces where you're genuinely enclosed by the paint color, which makes the choice between these two more consequential. Teton Blue reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Adirondack Blue.
House
Seen across an entire facade, subtle tonal differences become pronounced. What reads as nearly the same on a chip often reads as clearly different at scale. Teton Blue reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Adirondack Blue.

Adirondack Blue vs Teton Blue Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Adirondack Blue on one side and Teton Blue 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.
