Pasha Brown vs Courtyard in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Pasha Brown and Courtyard 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 brightness difference is modest but present — Courtyard gives the walls a little more lift.
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. Courtyard reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.
