Sauterne vs Powdered Heather in Real Spaces

1 real room side by side. Sauterne and Powdered Heather 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.

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

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
