Cloud Cover vs Icy Morn

Cloud CoverBenjamin MoorevsIcy MornBenjamin MooreΔE 8.1 — Noticeable difference

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Cloud Cover reads as beige-greige, while Icy Morn reads as green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Cloud Cover (LRV 80) reflects noticeably more light than Icy Morn (LRV 66), a difference of 14 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Cloud Cover runs warm while Icy Morn is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 8.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. 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.
