Stony Ground vs Dream

Stony GroundFarrow & BallvsDreamTikkurilaΔE 2.0Subtle difference

Stony Ground is a Farrow & Ball color while Dream comes from Tikkurila. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. At LRV 57 vs 54, Dream will read as the brighter of the two — a 3-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. With a ΔE of 2.0, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart. 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.
