Caribbean Teal vs Passion Blue
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Caribbean Teal reads as blue-grey, while Passion Blue reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Passion Blue (LRV 48) reflects noticeably more light than Caribbean Teal (LRV 20), a difference of 28 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 26.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

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.
