Ocean Abyss vs Crystal Springs
Ocean Abyss (Behr) and Crystal Springs (Benjamin Moore) come from different manufacturers. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. The 67-point LRV gap — 74 for Crystal Springs vs 7 for Ocean Abyss — means Crystal Springs will open up a space more effectively. Both share a blue character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 55.8 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

Digital color is approximate.
