Dazzle vs Lantern Light

DazzleSherwin-WilliamsvsLantern LightSherwin-WilliamsΔE 68.7Very different colors

Dazzle and Lantern Light come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Dazzle reads as blue, while Lantern Light reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 54-point LRV gap — 76 for Lantern Light vs 22 for Dazzle — means Lantern Light will open up a space more effectively. Where Dazzle leans cool, Lantern Light reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 68.7 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.

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.
