Ocean Abyss vs Teal Lux in Real Spaces

Ocean Abyss and Teal Lux are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone. These real-room photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions. Showing 3 room types where both colors have photos.

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. Teal Lux 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. Teal Lux has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.
