Sandstone vs Light ivory
Where Sandstone belongs to Dulux's range, Light ivory is a RAL Classic color. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Light ivory (LRV 68) reflects noticeably more light than Sandstone (LRV 60), a difference of 8 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 5.8 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
