Sea Foam vs Piazza

Sea FoamCloverdale PaintvsPiazzaTikkurilaΔE 9.2Noticeable difference

Where Sea Foam belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, Piazza is a Tikkurila color. Hue-wise, Sea Foam belongs to the grey family and Piazza to the beige-greige family. Piazza (LRV 65) reflects noticeably more light than Sea Foam (LRV 51), a difference of 14 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 9.2 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Sea Foam vs Piazza in Real Spaces

3 real rooms side by side. Sea Foam and Piazza 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 LRV gap is large enough that Piazza will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Sea Foam would.

Bedroom

The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Piazza reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Sea Foam.

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.
