Whisper vs Tuft

WhisperBenjamin MoorevsTuftTikkurilaΔE 1.5Subtle difference

Whisper is a Benjamin Moore color while Tuft comes from Tikkurila. Whisper reads as grey, while Tuft reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. With LRVs of 66 and 65, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. With a ΔE of 1.5, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
