Labrador Blue vs Quietly Violet
Labrador Blue and Quietly Violet come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Labrador Blue belongs to the blue family and Quietly Violet to the grey-purple family. The 11-point LRV gap — 33 for Labrador Blue vs 22 for Quietly Violet — means Labrador Blue will open up a space more effectively. Where Labrador Blue leans blue, Quietly Violet reads red — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes.
