Opal vs Abstract White
Where Opal belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Abstract White is a Cloverdale Paint color. Opal reads as beige, while Abstract White reads as beige-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Abstract White (LRV 87) reflects noticeably more light than Opal (LRV 84), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 0.8, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. 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.
