Origin vs Spring Air
Where Origin belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, Spring Air is a Jotun color. These are both beige-yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-yellow to land. Origin (LRV 66) reflects noticeably more light than Spring Air (LRV 59), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 2.6, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Origin vs Spring Air in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Origin and Spring Air 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 brightness difference is modest but present — Origin gives the walls a little more lift.
Bathroom
Bathrooms are one of the few spaces where you're genuinely enclosed by the paint color, which makes the choice between these two more consequential. Origin reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

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.
