Hazy Blue vs Oxford White
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hazy Blue reads as blue, while Oxford White reads as white-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Oxford White (LRV 87) reflects noticeably more light than Hazy Blue (LRV 50), a difference of 37 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Hazy Blue runs green and blue while Oxford White is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 26.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

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.
