Apollo Blue vs Edgecomb Gray
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Apollo Blue belongs to the blue-grey family and Edgecomb Gray to the beige-greige family. Edgecomb Gray (LRV 63) reflects noticeably more light than Apollo Blue (LRV 24), a difference of 39 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Apollo Blue runs blue while Edgecomb Gray is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 32.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

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.
