Caponata vs Crystal Blue
Caponata and Crystal Blue come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Caponata reads as pink, while Crystal Blue reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 72-point LRV gap — 78 for Crystal Blue vs 6 for Caponata — means Crystal Blue will open up a space more effectively. Where Caponata leans red, Crystal Blue reads blue — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 70.9 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.
