Glacial Till vs Celtic Forest 3 in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Glacial Till and Celtic Forest 3 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. The brightness difference is modest but present — Celtic Forest 3 gives the walls a little more lift.
Mudroom
Mudrooms are seen in passing, often under whatever light comes through the door — a context that favors colors with some depth. Celtic Forest 3 has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.
