Granny Smith vs Gray Cloud
Granny Smith and Gray Cloud come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Granny Smith belongs to the beige-yellow family and Gray Cloud to the blue-grey family. The 13-point LRV gap — 70 for Gray Cloud vs 57 for Granny Smith — means Gray Cloud will open up a space more effectively. Where Granny Smith leans yellow, Gray Cloud reads blue — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 63.3 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
