Heath Gray vs Shoji White
Where Heath Gray belongs to Behr's range, Shoji White is a Sherwin-Williams color. Heath Gray reads as grey, while Shoji White reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Shoji White (LRV 74) reflects noticeably more light than Heath Gray (LRV 59), a difference of 16 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Heath Gray runs green and yellow while Shoji White is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 8.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
