Agreeable Gray vs Tamarix
Agreeable Gray (Sherwin-Williams) and Tamarix (Tikkurila) come from different manufacturers. Agreeable Gray reads as greige-grey, while Tamarix reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 23-point LRV gap — 60 for Agreeable Gray vs 38 for Tamarix — means Agreeable Gray will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 16.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Agreeable Gray on one side and Tamarix on the other.
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.
