Soft Radiance vs Natural Wool

Soft RadianceJotunvsNatural WoolSherwin-WilliamsΔE 1.4Subtle difference

Soft Radiance is a Jotun color while Natural Wool comes from Sherwin-Williams. Both sit in the beige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. With LRVs of 61 and 59, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. They share a warm quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. With a ΔE of 1.4, 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. 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.
