Berry Frappe vs Plum Blossom paint color comparison

Berry Frappe vs Plum Blossom

Berry Frappe and Plum Blossom come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. These are both purples, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within purple to land. The 11-point LRV gap — 39 for Berry Frappe vs 28 for Plum Blossom — means Berry Frappe will open up a space more effectively. Both share a cool character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 11.6 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.

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.
