Middleton Pink vs Verbena

Middleton PinkFarrow & BallvsVerbenaSherwin-WilliamsΔE 3.6Noticeable difference

Middleton Pink (Farrow & Ball) and Verbena (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. These are both pink-reds, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink-red to land. The 8-point LRV gap — 85 for Middleton Pink vs 77 for Verbena — means Middleton Pink 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. ΔE 3.6 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
