Cosmos vs Violet Vignette
Cosmos and Violet Vignette come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Cosmos reads as blue, while Violet Vignette reads as blue-purple — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 36-point LRV gap — 74 for Violet Vignette vs 38 for Cosmos — means Violet Vignette will open up a space more effectively. Both share a cool character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 23.3 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
