Zen vs Catalina Blue
Where Zen belongs to Behr's range, Catalina Blue is a Benjamin Moore color. Zen reads as green-grey, while Catalina Blue reads as blue-green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (46 vs 48), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. Zen runs green while Catalina Blue is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 1.9, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.

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.
