Futon vs Shell White

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Futon reads as beige, while Shell White reads as beige-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Shell White (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than Futon (LRV 80), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. At ΔE 1.8, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
