Waterfall vs Raindrop
Waterfall (Benjamin Moore) and Raindrop (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 3-point LRV gap — 55 for Waterfall vs 52 for Raindrop — means Waterfall will open up a space more effectively. Where Waterfall leans blue, Raindrop reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 3.5 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.

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.
