Crystal Blue vs Sweet Dreams
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Crystal Blue reads as blue, while Sweet Dreams reads as blue-green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Crystal Blue (LRV 78) reflects noticeably more light than Sweet Dreams (LRV 76), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Crystal Blue runs blue while Sweet Dreams is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 2.1, 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.
