Shiitake vs Vulcanite
Shiitake is a Behr color while Vulcanite comes from Tikkurila. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. At LRV 33 vs 29, Shiitake will read as the brighter of the two — a 4-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 3.6, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.

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.
