Clear Skies vs White Heron
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Clear Skies belongs to the blue family and White Heron to the white-yellow family. White Heron (LRV 87) reflects noticeably more light than Clear Skies (LRV 77), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Clear Skies runs blue while White Heron is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 9.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

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.
