Marshmallow vs S 1002-Y20R
Marshmallow (Cloverdale Paint) and S 1002-Y20R (NCS) come from different manufacturers. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. The 3-point LRV gap — 82 for S 1002-Y20R vs 80 for Marshmallow — means S 1002-Y20R will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 1.4 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
