Blue Lapis vs Thunder

Both are Benjamin Moore colors. Hue-wise, Blue Lapis belongs to the blue family and Thunder to the greige-grey family. At LRV 48 vs 27, Thunder will read as the brighter of the two — a 20-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Blue Lapis's blue character against Thunder's red — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 46.0, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions.
