Thunder vs Victorian Trim
Thunder and Victorian Trim come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Thunder belongs to the greige-grey family and Victorian Trim to the blue family. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 48 vs 46 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Thunder leans red, Victorian Trim reads blue — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 29.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. 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. 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.
