Cork Wedge vs Dromedary Camel in Real Spaces

10 real rooms side by side. Cork Wedge and Dromedary Camel 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.

Living Room

A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. The distinction reads clearly at room scale, making the choice between them concrete.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
