Millstream vs Off White
Both from Behr's palette. Hue-wise, Millstream belongs to the blue family and Off White to the beige-white family. Off White (LRV 76) reflects noticeably more light than Millstream (LRV 61), a difference of 15 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Millstream runs blue while Off White is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 18.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

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 LRV gap is large enough that Off White will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Millstream would.
Bathroom
Bathrooms are one of the few spaces where you're genuinely enclosed by the paint color, which makes the choice between these two more consequential. Off White reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Millstream.

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.
