Burgundy vs Mountain Air

BurgundySherwin-WilliamsvsMountain AirSherwin-WilliamsΔE 66.1 — Very different colors

Burgundy and Mountain Air come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Burgundy reads as pink-red, while Mountain Air reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 68-point LRV gap — 73 for Mountain Air vs 5 for Burgundy — means Mountain Air will open up a space more effectively. Where Burgundy leans warm, Mountain Air reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 66.1 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.
