Glacier Ice vs Paper
Where Glacier Ice belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, Paper is a Tikkurila color. Glacier Ice reads as green-grey, while Paper reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Paper (LRV 88) reflects noticeably more light than Glacier Ice (LRV 73), a difference of 15 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 7.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Glacier Ice vs Paper in Real Spaces
3 real rooms side by side. Glacier Ice and Paper are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The LRV gap is large enough that Paper will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Glacier Ice would.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Paper reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Glacier Ice.
Kitchen
In a kitchen, colors are seen under bright task lighting that amplifies undertones — what reads neutral elsewhere can show its hand here. Paper reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Glacier Ice.

Glacier Ice vs Paper Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Glacier Ice on one side and Paper on the other.
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.
