Bancha vs Jamaican Sea
Bancha (Farrow & Ball) and Jamaican Sea (PPG) come from different manufacturers. Bancha reads as beige-greige, while Jamaican Sea reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 20-point LRV gap — 33 for Jamaican Sea vs 13 for Bancha — means Jamaican Sea will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 47.8 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
