Manor Blue vs Classic Blue
Where Manor Blue belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Classic Blue is a Jotun color. Manor Blue reads as blue-grey, while Classic Blue reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Classic Blue (LRV 52) reflects noticeably more light than Manor Blue (LRV 47), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Manor Blue runs blue while Classic Blue is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 3.7 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
