Armadillo vs Shoji White
Armadillo (PPG) and Shoji White (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Armadillo reads as beige, while Shoji White reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 16-point LRV gap — 74 for Shoji White vs 58 for Armadillo — means Shoji White will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 10.3 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
