Icy Blue vs Paper
Icy Blue (Benjamin Moore) and Paper (Tikkurila) come from different manufacturers. Icy Blue reads as blue, while Paper reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 10-point LRV gap — 88 for Paper vs 79 for Icy Blue — means Paper will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 9.4 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
