Melting Moment vs S 1000-N
Where Melting Moment belongs to Behr's range, S 1000-N is a NCS color. Melting Moment reads as green, while S 1000-N reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. S 1000-N (LRV 74) reflects noticeably more light than Melting Moment (LRV 71), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Melting Moment runs green while S 1000-N 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 you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Melting Moment vs S 1000-N in Real Spaces
1 real room side by side. Melting Moment and S 1000-N 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 brightness difference is modest but present — S 1000-N gives the walls a little more lift.

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.
