Normandy vs Sandalwood
Normandy and Sandalwood come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Normandy reads as blue-grey, while Sandalwood reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 12-point LRV gap — 33 for Sandalwood vs 22 for Normandy — means Sandalwood will open up a space more effectively. Where Normandy leans blue, Sandalwood reads red — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 40.6 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
