Drop Cloth vs Peace of Mind
Where Drop Cloth belongs to Farrow & Ball's range, Peace of Mind is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. Drop Cloth (LRV 52) reflects noticeably more light than Peace of Mind (LRV 49), 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. At ΔE 2.5, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
