Light Blue vs S 2005-G10Y
Where Light Blue belongs to Farrow & Ball's range, S 2005-G10Y is a NCS color. Light Blue reads as blue-green, while S 2005-G10Y reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. S 2005-G10Y (LRV 53) reflects noticeably more light than Light Blue (LRV 49), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean neutral, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. At ΔE 2.6, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
