Gamboge vs Sea View

Gamboge and Sea View come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Gamboge reads as beige, while Sea View reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 6-point LRV gap — 55 for Sea View vs 49 for Gamboge — means Sea View will open up a space more effectively. Where Gamboge leans red, Sea View reads blue — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 52.9 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
