Outerspace vs Lake View
Where Outerspace belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, Lake View is a Jotun color. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. Outerspace (LRV 68) reflects noticeably more light than Lake View (LRV 58), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 7.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Outerspace vs Lake View in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Outerspace and Lake View 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.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The LRV gap is large enough that Outerspace will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Lake View would.
Kitchen
In a kitchen, colors are seen under bright task lighting that amplifies undertones — what reads neutral elsewhere can show its hand here. Outerspace reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Lake View.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Outerspace on one side and Lake View 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.
