Bella Blue vs Studio Clay

Bella BlueBenjamin MoorevsStudio ClayBenjamin MooreΔE 25.0 — Very different colors

Bella Blue and Studio Clay come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Bella Blue reads as blue, while Studio Clay reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 11-point LRV gap — 29 for Studio Clay vs 18 for Bella Blue — means Studio Clay will open up a space more effectively. Where Bella Blue leans blue, Studio Clay reads red — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 25.0 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
