Cardboard vs Meadowlark

Both are Sherwin-Williams colors. Cardboard reads as beige, while Meadowlark reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 24 vs 22, Meadowlark will read as the brighter of the two — a 3-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. They share a warm quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. At ΔE 6.6, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.
