Mist vs Summer Linnen
Where Mist belongs to Jotun's range, Summer Linnen is a Dulux color. Mist reads as beige-greige, while Summer Linnen reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Summer Linnen (LRV 79) reflects noticeably more light than Mist (LRV 74), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. At ΔE 1.8, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Mist vs Summer Linnen in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Mist and Summer Linnen 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
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The brightness difference is modest but present — Summer Linnen gives the walls a little more lift.

Dining Room
A dining room lit by a dimmed pendant or candles is one of the most forgiving environments for paint — warm light softens almost everything. Summer Linnen has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

Mist vs Summer Linnen Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Mist on one side and Summer Linnen 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.
