Clear Skies vs Zircon Ice
Where Clear Skies belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Zircon Ice is a Cloverdale Paint color. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Clear Skies (LRV 77) reflects noticeably more light than Zircon Ice (LRV 74), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 2.7, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. 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.
