Spring Mint vs Buoyant Blue
Spring Mint is a Benjamin Moore color while Buoyant Blue comes from Sherwin-Williams. These are both blue-greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue-green to land. With LRVs of 80 and 80, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. The tonal difference — Spring Mint's green character against Buoyant Blue's cool — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. With a ΔE of 0.9, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
