Cape May Cobblestone vs Luxe

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Cape May Cobblestone reads as grey, while Luxe reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Cape May Cobblestone (LRV 40) reflects noticeably more light than Luxe (LRV 22), a difference of 18 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Cape May Cobblestone runs yellow while Luxe is decidedly blue, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 24.8, 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.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
