Black Jack vs Horizon
Black Jack and Horizon come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Black Jack belongs to the grey family and Horizon to the green-grey family. The 67-point LRV gap — 73 for Horizon vs 6 for Black Jack — means Horizon will open up a space more effectively. Where Black Jack leans blue and purple, Horizon reads green — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 63.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Black Jack vs Horizon in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Seeing Black Jack and Horizon in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.
Living Room
A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Horizon reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Black Jack.
Bathroom
Small bathrooms intensify color. A shade that seems quiet in a larger room can feel immersive when you're surrounded by it on four walls. Horizon returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

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.
