Cruising vs Pulsating Blue

Cruising and Pulsating Blue come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 8-point LRV gap — 19 for Cruising vs 10 for Pulsating Blue — means Cruising 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.
