Sea Reflections vs Tide
Where Sea Reflections belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Tide is a Tikkurila color. Sea Reflections reads as blue, while Tide reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Tide (LRV 31) reflects noticeably more light than Sea Reflections (LRV 28), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 8.4 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. 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.
