Super Nova vs Pelt
Where Super Nova belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Pelt is a Farrow & Ball color. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Super Nova (LRV 10) reflects noticeably more light than Pelt (LRV 7), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Super Nova runs purple while Pelt is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 6.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

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.
