Gray Sky vs Borrowed Light
Gray Sky is a Benjamin Moore color while Borrowed Light comes from Farrow & Ball. These are both blue-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue-grey to land. At LRV 76 vs 69, Gray Sky will read as the brighter of the two — a 6-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Gray Sky's blue character against Borrowed Light's cool — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 3.5, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.
