Adventure vs Morning Fog

AdventureJotunvsMorning FogSherwin-WilliamsΔE 27.0Very different colors

Adventure (Jotun) and Morning Fog (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Adventure belongs to the beige-greige family and Morning Fog to the blue-grey family. The 17-point LRV gap — 42 for Morning Fog vs 25 for Adventure — means Morning Fog will open up a space more effectively. Where Adventure leans warm, Morning Fog reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 27.0 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 5 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Adventure vs Morning Fog in Real Spaces

5 real rooms side by side. Seeing Adventure and Morning Fog in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.

Living Room

A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Morning Fog reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Adventure.

Bedroom

Bedrooms are typically lit with warmer, lower light than the rest of the house — a condition that flatters warm tones and deepens cool ones. Morning Fog returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Kitchen

Kitchens often have the harshest, most revealing light in the house — under-cabinet LEDs and overhead fixtures that strip away subtlety. Morning Fog returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Dining Room

Dining rooms often rely on warm incandescent or candlelight, which flatters warm undertones and mutes cool ones. The LRV gap is large enough that Morning Fog will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Adventure would.

Bathroom

Small bathrooms intensify color. A shade that seems quiet in a larger room can feel immersive when you're surrounded by it on four walls. Morning Fog returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Digital color is approximate.

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