Poppy vs Snowbound
Where Poppy belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Snowbound is a Sherwin-Williams color. Poppy reads as pink-red, while Snowbound reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Snowbound (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than Poppy (LRV 15), a difference of 68 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Poppy runs red while Snowbound is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 74.9, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

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.
