Pumpkin Hue vs Bella in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Pumpkin Hue and Bella 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
Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. Pumpkin Hue 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 room light is typically the warmest in the house, which shifts both colors toward the red end of the spectrum compared to daylight. Pumpkin Hue reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Bella.
