Windsurf vs North Sea
Windsurf is a Behr color while North Sea comes from Cloverdale Paint. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. At LRV 37 vs 34, Windsurf will read as the brighter of the two — a 3-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 4.2, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below you'll find 4 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Windsurf vs North Sea in Real Spaces
4 real rooms side by side. Windsurf and North Sea 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
Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. Windsurf has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.
Bedroom
Bedroom walls are often seen under warm artificial light, a context that shifts both colors from how they look on a chip. The brightness difference is modest but present — Windsurf gives the walls a little more lift.
Kitchen
Kitchen lighting tends to be bright and directional, which sharpens contrast and makes undertone differences more apparent. The brightness difference is modest but present — Windsurf gives the walls a little more lift.

Windsurf vs North Sea Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Windsurf on one side and North Sea 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.
