Light Blue vs Tangelo
Light Blue and Tangelo come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Light Blue reads as blue, while Tangelo reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 31-point LRV gap — 76 for Light Blue vs 45 for Tangelo — means Light Blue will open up a space more effectively. Where Light Blue leans blue, Tangelo reads red — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 84.6 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

Light Blue vs Tangelo Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Light Blue on one side and Tangelo 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.
