Dimity vs Wevet

DimityFarrow & BallvsWevetFarrow & BallΔE 7.8Noticeable difference

Both from Farrow & Ball's palette. Hue-wise, Dimity belongs to the beige family and Wevet to the beige-pink family. Wevet (LRV 82) reflects noticeably more light than Dimity (LRV 78), a difference of 5 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 7.8 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 5 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Dimity vs Wevet in Real Spaces

5 real rooms side by side. Dimity and Wevet are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.

Living Room

In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The brightness difference is modest but present — Wevet gives the walls a little more lift.

Bedroom

The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Wevet reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

Bathroom

Bathrooms are one of the few spaces where you're genuinely enclosed by the paint color, which makes the choice between these two more consequential. Wevet reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

House

Seen across an entire facade, subtle tonal differences become pronounced. What reads as nearly the same on a chip often reads as clearly different at scale. Wevet reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

Kitchen Cabinets

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.
