Salzburg Blue vs Bermuda
Salzburg Blue (Benjamin Moore) and Bermuda (PPG) come from different manufacturers. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. The 3-point LRV gap — 21 for Salzburg Blue vs 18 for Bermuda — means Salzburg Blue will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 2.7 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room.
