Misty CoastBehrvsPlanetary SilverBehrΔE 1.7 — Subtle difference

Misty Coast and Planetary Silver come from the same Behr collection. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 6-point LRV gap — 68 for Misty Coast vs 62 for Planetary Silver — means Misty Coast will open up a space more effectively. Both share a green character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 1.7 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Misty Coast vs Planetary Silver in Real Spaces

2 real rooms side by side. Misty Coast and Planetary Silver 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

A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Misty Coast reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

Bedroom

Bedrooms are typically lit with warmer, lower light than the rest of the house — a condition that flatters warm tones and deepens cool ones. Misty Coast has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

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.
