Celestial Blue vs Silvermist
Where Celestial Blue belongs to Little Greene's range, Silvermist is a Sherwin-Williams color. Hue-wise, Celestial Blue belongs to the blue-green family and Silvermist to the green-grey family. Silvermist (LRV 47) reflects noticeably more light than Celestial Blue (LRV 44), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Celestial Blue runs green while Silvermist is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 3.7 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Celestial Blue vs Silvermist in Real Spaces
3 real rooms side by side. Celestial Blue and Silvermist 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
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The temperature contrast between Silvermist and Celestial Blue is what sets these apart most in this context.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Silvermist brings more warmth to the space, while Celestial Blue keeps things cooler and crisper.
Front Door
A front door is a focal point — small color differences read clearly at this concentrated scale. The temperature contrast between Silvermist and Celestial Blue is what sets these apart most in this context.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Celestial Blue on one side and Silvermist 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.
