Daffodil vs Paper
Daffodil (Sherwin-Williams) and Paper (Tikkurila) come from different manufacturers. Daffodil reads as beige, while Paper reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 17-point LRV gap — 88 for Paper vs 71 for Daffodil — means Paper will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 48.8 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

Daffodil vs Paper Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Daffodil on one side and Paper 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.
