Saddle Soap vs Barro Verde

Saddle SoapPPGvsBarro VerdeSherwin-WilliamsΔE 2.8Subtle difference

Saddle Soap is a PPG color while Barro Verde 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. With LRVs of 27 and 28, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. With a ΔE of 2.8, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart. 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.
