S 4010-G10Y vs Acacia Haze in Real Spaces

2 real rooms side by side. S 4010-G10Y and Acacia Haze are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.

Bathroom

Bathrooms amplify color — the enclosed space and reflective surfaces make what reads subtle elsewhere feel more present here. The brightness difference is modest but present — Acacia Haze gives the walls a little more lift.

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