Travertine - Light vs Fresh Zest
Where Travertine - Light belongs to Little Greene's range, Fresh Zest is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Fresh Zest (LRV 82) reflects noticeably more light than Travertine - Light (LRV 78), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Travertine - Light runs red while Fresh Zest is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 1.8, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
