Palladian Blue vs S 2005-G10Y
Palladian Blue (Benjamin Moore) and S 2005-G10Y (NCS) come from different manufacturers. Palladian Blue reads as blue-green, while S 2005-G10Y reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 7-point LRV gap — 60 for Palladian Blue vs 53 for S 2005-G10Y — means Palladian Blue will open up a space more effectively. Where Palladian Blue leans green, S 2005-G10Y reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 5.4 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.

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.
