Venetian Crystal 2 vs Capri blue
Where Venetian Crystal 2 belongs to Dulux's range, Capri blue is a RAL Classic color. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. Capri blue (LRV 12) reflects noticeably more light than Venetian Crystal 2 (LRV 9), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 4.4 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
