Stormy Monday vs Goosewing
Where Stormy Monday belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Goosewing is a Dulux color. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (41 vs 42), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. Stormy Monday runs red while Goosewing is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 1.8, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Stormy Monday vs Goosewing in Real Spaces
1 real room side by side. Stormy Monday and Goosewing are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Kitchen Cabinets
Kitchen cabinets are constantly compared against adjacent materials, which means subtle differences between these two become much more visible. At this scale the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side, as shown here, to reliably tell them apart.

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.
