First Star vs Ghosted
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, First Star belongs to the grey family and Ghosted to the greige-grey family. Ghosted (LRV 75) reflects noticeably more light than First Star (LRV 69), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. First Star runs neutral while Ghosted is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 2.7, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
