Fantasy Blue vs Lake View
Where Fantasy Blue belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Lake View is a Jotun color. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. Fantasy Blue (LRV 63) reflects noticeably more light than Lake View (LRV 58), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Fantasy Blue runs blue while Lake View is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 2.5, 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.
