Journey's End vs Icy
Journey's End (Behr) and Icy (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 56 vs 56 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Journey's End leans blue, Icy reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 1.2 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room.
