Melon Ice vs Cement grey
Melon Ice is a Benjamin Moore color while Cement grey comes from RAL Classic. Melon Ice reads as beige, while Cement grey reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 74 vs 24, Melon Ice will read as the brighter of the two — a 50-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 38.1, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Melon Ice on one side and Cement grey 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.
