Doubles vs Mizzle

DoublesCloverdale PaintvsMizzleFarrow & BallΔE 43.1Very different colors

Doubles (Cloverdale Paint) and Mizzle (Farrow & Ball) come from different manufacturers. Doubles reads as green, while Mizzle reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 43-point LRV gap — 52 for Mizzle vs 9 for Doubles — means Mizzle will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 43.1 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 5 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Doubles vs Mizzle in Real Spaces

5 real rooms side by side. Seeing Doubles and Mizzle in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.

Living Room

A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Mizzle reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Doubles.

Bedroom

Bedrooms are typically lit with warmer, lower light than the rest of the house — a condition that flatters warm tones and deepens cool ones. Mizzle returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Kitchen

Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. Mizzle returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Dining Room

Dining rooms often rely on warm incandescent or candlelight, which flatters warm undertones and mutes cool ones. The LRV gap is large enough that Mizzle will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Doubles would.

Bathroom

Small bathrooms intensify color. A shade that seems quiet in a larger room can feel immersive when you're surrounded by it on four walls. Mizzle returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

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.
