Croquet vs French Violet
Croquet and French Violet come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Croquet reads as grey, while French Violet reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 27-point LRV gap — 45 for Croquet vs 18 for French Violet — means Croquet will open up a space more effectively. Where Croquet leans yellow, French Violet reads blue — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 38.1 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
