Calico Blue vs Gothic Green

Calico BlueBenjamin MoorevsGothic GreenBenjamin MooreΔE 10.5 — Distinct difference

Calico Blue and Gothic Green come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Calico Blue reads as blue-green, while Gothic Green reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 7-point LRV gap — 16 for Gothic Green vs 9 for Calico Blue — means Gothic Green will open up a space more effectively. Both share a green character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 10.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. 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.
