Floral White vs Artichoke
Floral White (Benjamin Moore) and Artichoke (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Floral White reads as beige-white, while Artichoke reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 59-point LRV gap — 80 for Floral White vs 21 for Artichoke — means Floral White will open up a space more effectively. Where Floral White leans yellow, Artichoke reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 40.5 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.
