Grappa vs Sterling
Grappa and Sterling come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 54-point LRV gap — 62 for Sterling vs 9 for Grappa — means Sterling will open up a space more effectively. Where Grappa leans purple, Sterling reads green — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 54.5 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. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
