Misty Air vs Milky Way
Where Misty Air belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Milky Way is a Jotun color. Misty Air reads as beige-yellow, while Milky Way reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Milky Way (LRV 74) reflects noticeably more light than Misty Air (LRV 70), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Misty Air runs yellow while Milky Way is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 2.9, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. 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. 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.
