Daring vs Stream
Daring and Stream come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Hue-wise, Daring belongs to the pink-red family and Stream to the blue family. The 31-point LRV gap — 57 for Stream vs 25 for Daring — means Stream will open up a space more effectively. Where Daring leans warm, Stream reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 73.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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