Mascarpone vs Evergreen Fog in Real Spaces

3 real rooms side by side. Seeing Mascarpone and Evergreen Fog in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.

Living Room

A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Mascarpone reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Evergreen Fog.

Kitchen

Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. Mascarpone returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Kitchen Cabinets

Cabinet color is always seen in context — against countertops, backsplash, and hardware — which amplifies undertone differences that might disappear on a plain wall. Mascarpone returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Digital color is approximate.
