Horizon Gray vs Mizzle

Horizon GrayBenjamin MoorevsMizzleFarrow & BallΔE 0.8Imperceptible difference

Horizon Gray is a Benjamin Moore color while Mizzle comes from Farrow & Ball. Hue-wise, Horizon Gray belongs to the greige-grey family and Mizzle to the grey family. With LRVs of 51 and 52, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. The tonal difference — Horizon Gray's yellow character against Mizzle's warm — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. With a ΔE of 0.8, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Horizon Gray vs Mizzle in Real Spaces

3 real rooms side by side. Horizon Gray and Mizzle are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.

Bedroom

Bedroom walls are often seen under warm artificial light, a context that shifts both colors from how they look on a chip. The two are close enough that the choice comes down to finer qualities — undertone, texture, what the color sits next to.

Dining Room

Dining room light is typically the warmest in the house, which shifts both colors toward the red end of the spectrum compared to daylight. At this scale the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side, as shown here, to reliably tell them apart.

House

At full exterior scale, the difference between these two colors becomes much easier to judge than from a small chip. The two are close enough that the choice comes down to finer qualities — undertone, texture, what the color sits next to.

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.
