Loft Space vs Sidewalk Gray
Where Loft Space belongs to Behr's range, Sidewalk Gray is a Benjamin Moore color. Loft Space reads as grey, while Sidewalk Gray reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (61 vs 61), so they'll read as similarly Light in most lighting conditions. Loft Space runs green while Sidewalk Gray is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 1.6, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Loft Space vs Sidewalk Gray in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Loft Space and Sidewalk Gray 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 two are close enough that the choice comes down to finer qualities — undertone, texture, what the color sits next to.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. At this scale the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side, as shown here, to reliably tell them apart.

Loft Space vs Sidewalk Gray Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Loft Space on one side and Sidewalk Gray 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.
