Ocean Spray vs Ammonite
Ocean Spray (Benjamin Moore) and Ammonite (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Ocean Spray reads as blue, while Ammonite reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 5-point LRV gap — 74 for Ocean Spray vs 69 for Ammonite — means Ocean Spray will open up a space more effectively. Where Ocean Spray leans green and blue, Ammonite reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 18.4 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.
