Night Shade vs Normandy

Night Shade and Normandy come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Night Shade belongs to the grey family and Normandy to the blue-grey family. The 16-point LRV gap — 22 for Normandy vs 6 for Night Shade — means Normandy will open up a space more effectively. Where Night Shade leans red, Normandy reads blue — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 30.0 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
