White Dove vs Forsythia
Where White Dove belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Forsythia is a Sherwin-Williams color. White Dove reads as beige-greige, while Forsythia reads as beige-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. White Dove (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than Forsythia (LRV 63), a difference of 20 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. White Dove runs yellow while Forsythia is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 81.0, 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.
