Patina vs Mermaid

The 8-point LRV gap — 31 for Patina vs 22 for Mermaid — means Patina will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 11.7 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
