Cloud White vs Just Walnut
Cloud White is a Benjamin Moore color while Just Walnut comes from Dulux. Cloud White reads as beige-white, while Just Walnut reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 85 vs 72, Cloud White will read as the brighter of the two — a 13-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Cloud White's yellow character against Just Walnut's warm — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 8.3, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below you'll find 5 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Cloud White vs Just Walnut in Real Spaces
5 real rooms side by side. Cloud White and Just Walnut 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
Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. Cloud White returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.
Bedroom
Bedroom walls are often seen under warm artificial light, a context that shifts both colors from how they look on a chip. The LRV gap is large enough that Cloud White will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Just Walnut would.
Dining Room
Dining room light is typically the warmest in the house, which shifts both colors toward the red end of the spectrum compared to daylight. Cloud White reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Just Walnut.
Bathroom
Bathrooms amplify color — the enclosed space and reflective surfaces make what reads subtle elsewhere feel more present here. The LRV gap is large enough that Cloud White will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Just Walnut would.
Kitchen Cabinets
On cabinetry, undertone and temperature become more pronounced against countertops and hardware. The LRV gap is large enough that Cloud White will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Just Walnut would.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Cloud White on one side and Just Walnut on the other.
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.
