Red Earth vs Tigereye
Red Earth (Farrow & Ball) and Tigereye (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Red Earth belongs to the pink-red family and Tigereye to the beige family. The 3-point LRV gap — 28 for Red Earth vs 24 for Tigereye — means Red Earth 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. A ΔE of 14.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Red Earth vs Tigereye Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Red Earth on one side and Tigereye on the other.
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.
