Chaise Mauve vs Gris
Chaise Mauve and Gris come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. The 7-point LRV gap — 46 for Chaise Mauve vs 39 for Gris — means Chaise Mauve will open up a space more effectively. Where Chaise Mauve leans warm, Gris reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. ΔE 8.8 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.

Chaise Mauve vs Gris in Real Spaces
1 real room side by side. Chaise Mauve and Gris are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Bedroom
Bedrooms are typically lit with warmer, lower light than the rest of the house — a condition that flatters warm tones and deepens cool ones. Chaise Mauve has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Chaise Mauve on one side and Gris on the other.
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.
