Yolk vs Mexico
Yolk (Cloverdale Paint) and Mexico (Jotun) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Yolk belongs to the beige-yellow family and Mexico to the beige family. The 25-point LRV gap — 60 for Yolk vs 35 for Mexico — means Yolk will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 51.4 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Yolk vs Mexico Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Yolk on one side and Mexico on the other.
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.
