Alpaca vs Liberty Blue
Alpaca and Liberty Blue come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Alpaca reads as greige-grey, while Liberty Blue reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The NaN-point LRV gap — NaN for Liberty Blue vs 57 for Alpaca — means Liberty Blue will open up a space more effectively. Where Alpaca leans warm, Liberty Blue reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of NaN 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.
