Black Bean vs Otter

Black Bean and Otter come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Hue-wise, Black Bean belongs to the grey family and Otter to the beige-pink family. The 3-point LRV gap — 6 for Otter vs 4 for Black Bean — means Otter will open up a space more effectively. Both share a warm character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. ΔE 8.7 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
