Calm Sea vs Icelandic
Where Calm Sea belongs to PPG's range, Icelandic is a Sherwin-Williams color. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Icelandic (LRV 67) reflects noticeably more light than Calm Sea (LRV 64), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 2.1, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
