Gray Beige vs Shoji White

Gray BeigePPGvsShoji WhiteSherwin-WilliamsΔE 4.9Noticeable difference

Gray Beige is a PPG color while Shoji White comes from Sherwin-Williams. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. At LRV 74 vs 64, Shoji White will read as the brighter of the two — a 10-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 4.9, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. 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.
