Rain Sky vs Soothing White
Where Rain Sky belongs to Jotun's range, Soothing White is a Sherwin-Williams color. Rain Sky reads as blue, while Soothing White reads as blue-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Soothing White (LRV 76) reflects noticeably more light than Rain Sky (LRV 69), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Rain Sky runs cool while Soothing White is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 4.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
