Frost Bite vs Roycroft Vellum
Frost Bite and Roycroft Vellum come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. The 17-point LRV gap — 88 for Frost Bite vs 70 for Roycroft Vellum — means Frost Bite will open up a space more effectively. Both share a warm character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 12.4 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
