Cloud Nine vs Original White
Both are Sherwin-Williams colors. Cloud Nine reads as white, while Original White reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 78 vs 74, Cloud Nine will read as the brighter of the two — a 5-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Cloud Nine's neutral character against Original White's warm — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. With a ΔE of 2.7, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
