Narrow Lane vs Smooth Stone
Narrow Lane (Dulux) and Smooth Stone (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. The 4-point LRV gap — 41 for Narrow Lane vs 37 for Smooth Stone — means Narrow Lane will open up a space more effectively. Both share a warm character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 3.0 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room.
