Salt vs Chalk
Salt (Farrow & Ball) and Chalk (Tikkurila) come from different manufacturers. Salt reads as greige-white, while Chalk reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 3-point LRV gap — 81 for Chalk vs 78 for Salt — means Chalk will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 2.8 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Salt vs Chalk Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Salt on one side and Chalk 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.
