Mythic vs Naval
Mythic (Benjamin Moore) and Naval (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Mythic belongs to the grey family and Naval to the blue family. The 8-point LRV gap — 12 for Mythic vs 4 for Naval — means Mythic will open up a space more effectively. Where Mythic leans purple, Naval reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 16.4 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. 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.
