Bold Blue vs Limelight
Bold Blue and Limelight come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Bold Blue reads as blue, while Limelight reads as beige-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 63-point LRV gap — 68 for Limelight vs 6 for Bold Blue — means Limelight will open up a space more effectively. Where Bold Blue leans blue, Limelight reads yellow — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 108.2 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
