Rhythm and Blues vs Marine Splash
Where Rhythm and Blues belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Marine Splash is a Dulux color. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. Marine Splash (LRV 60) reflects noticeably more light than Rhythm and Blues (LRV 56), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Rhythm and Blues runs blue while Marine Splash is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 8.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
