Pasha Brown vs Relaxed Khaki

Pasha BrownBehrvsRelaxed KhakiSherwin-WilliamsΔE 3.0Noticeable difference

Where Pasha Brown belongs to Behr's range, Relaxed Khaki is a Sherwin-Williams color. Both sit in the beige-greige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (48 vs 50), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. Pasha Brown runs red while Relaxed Khaki is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 3.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Pasha Brown vs Relaxed Khaki in Real Spaces

2 real rooms side by side. Pasha Brown and Relaxed Khaki 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. Side by side like this, the difference is easy to read — which is exactly why seeing them in a real space is more useful than comparing chips.

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. The distinction reads clearly at room scale, making the choice between them concrete.
