Misty Gray vs Evergreen Fog in Real Spaces
3 real rooms side by side. Seeing Misty Gray 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
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. Misty Gray 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 Misty Gray will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Evergreen Fog would.
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 Misty Gray will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Evergreen Fog would.
