Aspen Skies vs Mediterranean Sky
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. Mediterranean Sky (LRV 51) reflects noticeably more light than Aspen Skies (LRV 46), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Aspen Skies runs cool while Mediterranean Sky is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 4.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

Digital color is approximate.
