PeepsCloverdale PaintvsShoji WhiteSherwin-WilliamsΔE 64.2Very different colors

Peeps (Cloverdale Paint) and Shoji White (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Peeps belongs to the beige family and Shoji White to the beige-greige family. The 6-point LRV gap — 74 for Shoji White vs 68 for Peeps — means Shoji White will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 64.2 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

Peeps vs Shoji White in Real Spaces

5 real rooms side by side. Seeing Peeps and Shoji White 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. Shoji White reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

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. Shoji White has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

Kitchen

Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. Shoji White has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

Dining Room

Dining rooms often rely on warm incandescent or candlelight, which flatters warm undertones and mutes cool ones. The brightness difference is modest but present — Shoji White gives the walls a little more lift.

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.
