Stunning vs Annapolis Blue

StunningBenjamin MoorevsAnnapolis BluePPGΔE 3.7Noticeable difference

Stunning is a Benjamin Moore color while Annapolis Blue comes from PPG. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. With LRVs of 8 and 6, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. At ΔE 3.7, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. 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.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
