Maritime Teal vs Teal Voyage

Maritime TealDuluxvsTeal VoyageDuluxΔE 4.9Noticeable difference

Both from Dulux's palette. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Maritime Teal (LRV 26) reflects noticeably more light than Teal Voyage (LRV 21), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean cool, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 4.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 5 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Maritime Teal vs Teal Voyage in Real Spaces

5 real rooms side by side. Maritime Teal and Teal Voyage 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 brightness difference is modest but present — Maritime Teal gives the walls a little more lift.

Bedroom

The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Maritime Teal reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.
