Antique White vs Soft Mint

Antique WhiteJotunvsSoft MintJotunΔE 6.9Noticeable difference

Both are Jotun colors. Antique White reads as beige-greige, while Soft Mint reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 61 vs 56, Soft Mint will read as the brighter of the two — a 5-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Antique White's warm character against Soft Mint's neutral — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 6.9, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Antique White vs Soft Mint in Real Spaces

2 real rooms side by side. Antique White and Soft Mint 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.

Living Room

Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. Soft Mint has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

Bathroom

Bathrooms amplify color — the enclosed space and reflective surfaces make what reads subtle elsewhere feel more present here. The brightness difference is modest but present — Soft Mint gives the walls a little more lift.

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.
