Cyberspace and Sea Serpent: the documented difference
Cyberspace has an LRV of 6; Sherwin-Williams Sea Serpent SW-7615 is 7. The difference is 1 points, with Sea Serpent returning more light under the reference measurement. Choose by the material relationship as well as the number. Cyberspace brings cool charcoal-black depth, so a nearly black wall is a reasonable possibility in weaker light. Sea Serpent is a very dark navy.

The choice beside cognac seating and white shelving
Cognac furniture and white shelving supply different kinds of contrast: warm color from one, a clear light outline from the other.
Set up both candidates with cognac seating and white shelving. Use equal-sized boards with the intended finishes and place them in the same orientation. Do not put one directly beside a window and leave the other in shadow. A difference that follows the position rather than the board is a lighting observation, not evidence that the formula changed.
What the comparison can—and cannot—settle
For a second point of reference, Charcoal Blue is recorded at LRV 6. The undertones and neighboring colors covers that related choice.
Use the warmth of the furniture as contrast and check whether the shelving still defines the dark wall. Assess Cyberspace and Sea Serpent alone as well as side by side. The unchosen board will not remain in the finished room, and a preference created only by that neighbor may not survive its removal. Before ordering samples, compare room-planning features in the paint color visualizer roundup.
