New Age vs Stormy Sky

New AgeBenjamin MoorevsStormy SkyBenjamin MooreΔE 41.0Very different colors

Both are Benjamin Moore colors. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. At LRV 63 vs 14, New Age will read as the brighter of the two — a 49-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — New Age's red character against Stormy Sky's blue — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 41.0, 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. 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.
