Super Nova vs Bancha
Where Super Nova belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Bancha is a Farrow & Ball color. Super Nova reads as grey, while Bancha reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Bancha (LRV 13) reflects noticeably more light than Super Nova (LRV 10), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Super Nova runs cool while Bancha is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 31.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

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.
