Turning Leaf vs Artichoke
Turning Leaf (Benjamin Moore) and Artichoke (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Turning Leaf reads as beige-yellow, while Artichoke reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 14-point LRV gap — 35 for Turning Leaf vs 21 for Artichoke — means Turning Leaf will open up a space more effectively. Where Turning Leaf leans yellow, Artichoke reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 29.3 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

Digital color is approximate.
