Faded Denim vs Lulworth Blue
Where Faded Denim belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Lulworth Blue is a Farrow & Ball color. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. Faded Denim (LRV 52) reflects noticeably more light than Lulworth Blue (LRV 45), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Faded Denim runs blue while Lulworth Blue is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 8.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
