Aviary Blue vs Bravo Blue in Real Spaces

2 real rooms side by side. Aviary Blue and Bravo Blue are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.

Living Room

Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. Bravo Blue has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

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