Hidey Hole vs Paper

Hidey HoleLittle GreenevsPaperTikkurilaΔE 7.9Noticeable difference

Where Hidey Hole belongs to Little Greene's range, Paper is a Tikkurila color. Hidey Hole reads as green, while Paper reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Paper (LRV 88) reflects noticeably more light than Hidey Hole (LRV 80), a difference of 8 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 7.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. 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.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
