Custard vs Hubbard Squash

Custard is a Cloverdale Paint color while Hubbard Squash comes from Sherwin-Williams. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. At LRV 56 vs 51, Hubbard Squash will read as the brighter of the two — a 5-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 3.2, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
