Hope Chest vs Normandy

Hope Chest and Normandy come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Hope Chest belongs to the beige-greige family and Normandy to the blue-grey family. The 9-point LRV gap — 22 for Normandy vs 13 for Hope Chest — means Normandy will open up a space more effectively. Where Hope Chest leans red, Normandy reads blue — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 24.9 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
