Banana SplitDuluxvsSunflower Symphony 4DuluxΔE 27.8 — Very different colors

Both from Dulux's palette. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Banana Split (LRV 70) reflects noticeably more light than Sunflower Symphony 4 (LRV 62), a difference of 8 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 27.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

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.
