Fluid Blue vs Hazy
Fluid Blue is a Cloverdale Paint color while Hazy comes from Farrow & Ball. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. At LRV 66 vs 51, Fluid Blue will read as the brighter of the two — a 15-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 9.9, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Fluid Blue vs Hazy in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Fluid Blue and Hazy are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Bedroom
Bedroom walls are often seen under warm artificial light, a context that shifts both colors from how they look on a chip. The LRV gap is large enough that Fluid Blue will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Hazy would.
Bathroom
Bathrooms amplify color — the enclosed space and reflective surfaces make what reads subtle elsewhere feel more present here. The LRV gap is large enough that Fluid Blue will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Hazy would.

Fluid Blue vs Hazy Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Fluid Blue on one side and Hazy on the other.
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.
