Mill Springs Blue vs Rhine River

Both are Benjamin Moore colors. Mill Springs Blue reads as blue, while Rhine River reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 47 vs 34, Rhine River will read as the brighter of the two — a 14-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. They share a green and blue quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. At ΔE 11.7, 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.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
