Gotham vs Passageway
Gotham (Benjamin Moore) and Passageway (Valspar) come from different manufacturers. Gotham reads as grey, while Passageway reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 8-point LRV gap — 22 for Gotham vs 14 for Passageway — means Gotham will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 17.1 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
