Clove vs Rockweed
Clove and Rockweed come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Hue-wise, Clove belongs to the greige-grey family and Rockweed to the grey family. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 5 vs 4 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. Both share a warm character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of NaN 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.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Clove on one side and Rockweed 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.
