Artichoke vs V444
Artichoke (Sherwin-Williams) and V444 (Tikkurila) come from different manufacturers. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. The 10-point LRV gap — 31 for V444 vs 21 for Artichoke — means V444 will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 15.3 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.
