Under the Big Top vs Hazy
Where Under the Big Top belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Hazy is a Farrow & Ball color. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. Under the Big Top (LRV 63) reflects noticeably more light than Hazy (LRV 51), a difference of 12 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Under the Big Top runs blue while Hazy is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 6.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
