Surf City vs Marine Splash
Where Surf City belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Marine Splash is a Dulux color. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Marine Splash (LRV 60) reflects noticeably more light than Surf City (LRV 55), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Surf City runs blue while Marine Splash is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 2.8, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
