Gray Lake vs White Ice

Gray LakeBenjamin MoorevsWhite IceBenjamin MooreΔE 2.2 — Subtle difference

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Gray Lake belongs to the green-grey family and White Ice to the green-white family. White Ice (LRV 84) reflects noticeably more light than Gray Lake (LRV 79), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Gray Lake runs green while White Ice is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 2.2, 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.

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.
