Deep Royal vs Starfish

Deep Royal and Starfish come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Deep Royal belongs to the blue family and Starfish to the beige family. The 35-point LRV gap — 41 for Starfish vs 5 for Deep Royal — means Starfish will open up a space more effectively. Where Deep Royal leans blue, Starfish reads red — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 67.4 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
