Hamilton Blue vs S429
Where Hamilton Blue belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, S429 is a Tikkurila color. Both sit in the blue-grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Hamilton Blue (LRV 18) reflects noticeably more light than S429 (LRV 16), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 4.4 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

Hamilton Blue vs S429 Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Hamilton Blue on one side and S429 on the other.
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.
