Just Walnut vs White Pepper
Where Just Walnut belongs to Dulux's range, White Pepper is a Jotun color. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. White Pepper (LRV 75) reflects noticeably more light than Just Walnut (LRV 72), a difference of 3 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. The ΔE 4.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
