Ice Mist vs Pool Blue

Ice Mist and Pool Blue come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Ice Mist reads as green-white, while Pool Blue reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 40-point LRV gap — 89 for Ice Mist vs 48 for Pool Blue — means Ice Mist will open up a space more effectively. Where Ice Mist leans green, Pool Blue reads blue — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 28.9 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
