Calamine vs L380
Calamine (Farrow & Ball) and L380 (Tikkurila) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Calamine belongs to the pink-red family and L380 to the green family. The 47-point LRV gap — 68 for Calamine vs 20 for L380 — means Calamine will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 55.0 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
