Blue Sky vs Pomegranate
Blue Sky and Pomegranate come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Blue Sky reads as blue, while Pomegranate reads as pink-red — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 52-point LRV gap — 58 for Blue Sky vs 7 for Pomegranate — means Blue Sky will open up a space more effectively. Where Blue Sky leans cool, Pomegranate reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 80.8 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Blue Sky on one side and Pomegranate on the other.
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.
