Sea Spray vs Stargazer

Sea SpraySherwin-WilliamsvsStargazerSherwin-WilliamsΔE 35.5 — Very different colors

Sea Spray and Stargazer come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Sea Spray reads as green-grey, while Stargazer reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 44-point LRV gap — 61 for Sea Spray vs 17 for Stargazer — means Sea Spray will open up a space more effectively. Where Sea Spray leans neutral, Stargazer reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 35.5 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.

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.
