Carys vs Indian Yellow

CarysLittle GreenevsIndian YellowLittle GreeneΔE 8.4Noticeable difference

Carys and Indian Yellow come from the same Little Greene collection. These are both beige-yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-yellow to land. The 6-point LRV gap — 79 for Carys vs 72 for Indian Yellow — means Carys will open up a space more effectively. Both share a yellow character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. ΔE 8.4 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. 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.
