They share a warm quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. At ΔE 6.2, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.

New White vs Sand in Real Spaces

1 real room side by side. New White and Sand 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.

Kitchen

Kitchen lighting tends to be bright and directional, which sharpens contrast and makes undertone differences more apparent. The LRV gap is large enough that New White will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Sand would.

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.
