Mediterranean Blue vs Safe Harbor
Both from PPG's palette. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (24 vs 24), so they'll read as similarly Dark in most lighting conditions. The ΔE 3.2 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
