Artichoke vs N391
Artichoke (Sherwin-Williams) and N391 (Tikkurila) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Artichoke belongs to the grey family and N391 to the beige-yellow family. The 16-point LRV gap — 38 for N391 vs 21 for Artichoke — means N391 will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 40.4 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.
