Icy Blue vs Night Shade
Icy Blue and Night Shade come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Icy Blue belongs to the blue family and Night Shade to the grey family. The 73-point LRV gap — 79 for Icy Blue vs 6 for Night Shade — means Icy Blue will open up a space more effectively. Where Icy Blue leans blue, Night Shade reads red — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 67.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
