Light Blue vs Soar
Light Blue (Benjamin Moore) and Soar (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 5-point LRV gap — 76 for Light Blue vs 70 for Soar — means Light Blue will open up a space more effectively. Where Light Blue leans blue, Soar reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 3.3 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.

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