Blustery Sky vs Rain Cloud

Blustery Sky and Rain Cloud come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. These are both blue-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue-grey to land. The 10-point LRV gap — 22 for Blustery Sky vs 11 for Rain Cloud — means Blustery Sky will open up a space more effectively. Both share a cool character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 13.8 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
