Apparition vs Ice Formations

Apparition and Ice Formations come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Apparition belongs to the greige-grey family and Ice Formations to the beige-greige family. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 57 vs 55 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Apparition leans red, Ice Formations reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 2.3 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
