Edamame vs Garden Spot
Edamame and Garden Spot come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Hue-wise, Edamame belongs to the beige-greige family and Garden Spot to the yellow family. The 3-point LRV gap — 20 for Edamame vs 17 for Garden Spot — means Edamame will open up a space more effectively. Where Edamame leans warm, Garden Spot reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 11.3 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Edamame vs Garden Spot in Real Spaces
3 real rooms side by side. Seeing Edamame and Garden Spot in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.
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. Edamame reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.
Bedroom
Bedrooms are typically lit with warmer, lower light than the rest of the house — a condition that flatters warm tones and deepens cool ones. Edamame has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.
Front Door
On a front door, the color is both the first and last thing you see — a context where even a modest tonal difference reads clearly. Edamame reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

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.
