Mushroom vs Castle
Where Mushroom belongs to Little Greene's range, Castle is a Tikkurila color. Mushroom reads as beige, while Castle reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Mushroom (LRV 56) reflects noticeably more light than Castle (LRV 53), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.5 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. 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.
