Clearlake vs Picture Perfect paint color comparison

Clearlake vs Picture Perfect

Clearlake and Picture Perfect come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. The 12-point LRV gap — 67 for Picture Perfect vs 54 for Clearlake — means Picture Perfect will open up a space more effectively. Both share a blue character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 12.8 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. 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.
