Horizon vs White Wisp
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Horizon belongs to the green-grey family and White Wisp to the white family. White Wisp (LRV 78) reflects noticeably more light than Horizon (LRV 73), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean green, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. At ΔE 2.5, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Horizon vs White Wisp in Real Spaces
3 real rooms side by side. Horizon and White Wisp 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.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The brightness difference is modest but present — White Wisp gives the walls a little more lift.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. White Wisp reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.
Bathroom
Bathrooms are one of the few spaces where you're genuinely enclosed by the paint color, which makes the choice between these two more consequential. White Wisp reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

Horizon vs White Wisp Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Horizon on one side and White Wisp 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.
