Hazy vs Mizzle
Hazy and Mizzle come from the same Farrow & Ball collection. Hazy reads as blue, while Mizzle reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 51 vs 52 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Hazy leans cool, Mizzle reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 13.1 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

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.
