Cloud Cover vs Night Mist

Cloud CoverBenjamin MoorevsNight MistBenjamin MooreΔE 8.3 — Noticeable difference

Cloud Cover and Night Mist come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Cloud Cover belongs to the beige-greige family and Night Mist to the green-grey family. The 17-point LRV gap — 80 for Cloud Cover vs 63 for Night Mist — means Cloud Cover will open up a space more effectively. Where Cloud Cover leans yellow, Night Mist reads green — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 8.3 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Cloud Cover vs Night Mist in Real Spaces

2 real rooms side by side. Cloud Cover and Night Mist are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.

Living Room

A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Cloud Cover reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Night Mist.

Bathroom

Small bathrooms intensify color. A shade that seems quiet in a larger room can feel immersive when you're surrounded by it on four walls. Cloud Cover returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

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.
