Melon Ice vs Shoji White
Melon Ice (Benjamin Moore) and Shoji White (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Melon Ice belongs to the beige family and Shoji White to the beige-greige family. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 74 vs 74 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Where Melon Ice leans red, Shoji White reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 8.6 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Melon Ice vs Shoji White Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Melon Ice on one side and Shoji White 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.
