Blue Note vs Splash

Blue NoteBenjamin MoorevsSplashBenjamin MooreΔE 55.1 — Very different colors

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Blue Note reads as blue-grey, while Splash reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Splash (LRV 66) reflects noticeably more light than Blue Note (LRV 9), a difference of 57 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean blue, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 55.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. 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.
