Deep Silver vs Eclipse
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Deep Silver reads as grey, while Eclipse reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Deep Silver (LRV 29) reflects noticeably more light than Eclipse (LRV 20), a difference of 9 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean blue, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 9.4 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.

Deep Silver vs Eclipse Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Deep Silver on one side and Eclipse on the other.
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.
