Black Horizon vs Railings
Where Black Horizon belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Railings is a Farrow & Ball color. Hue-wise, Black Horizon belongs to the blue-grey family and Railings to the grey family. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (8 vs 7), so they'll read as similarly Dark in most lighting conditions. Black Horizon runs blue while Railings is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 1.3, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Black Horizon on one side and Railings on the other.
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.
