Ghosted vs Glacier Bay
Both are Sherwin-Williams colors. Hue-wise, Ghosted belongs to the greige-grey family and Glacier Bay to the greige-white family. With LRVs of 75 and 75, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. The tonal difference — Ghosted's warm character against Glacier Bay's neutral — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. With a ΔE of 1.3, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart. Below you'll find 10 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Ghosted vs Glacier Bay in Real Spaces
10 real rooms side by side. Ghosted and Glacier Bay are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. Glacier Bay reads more restrained here, while Ghosted adds a sense of enclosure and warmth.
Bedroom
Bedroom walls are often seen under warm artificial light, a context that shifts both colors from how they look on a chip. The temperature contrast between Ghosted and Glacier Bay is what sets these apart most in this context.
Kitchen
Kitchen lighting tends to be bright and directional, which sharpens contrast and makes undertone differences more apparent. The temperature contrast between Ghosted and Glacier Bay is what sets these apart most in this context.
Dining Room
Dining room light is typically the warmest in the house, which shifts both colors toward the red end of the spectrum compared to daylight. Ghosted brings more warmth to the space, while Glacier Bay keeps things cooler and crisper.
Bathroom
Bathrooms amplify color — the enclosed space and reflective surfaces make what reads subtle elsewhere feel more present here. The temperature contrast between Ghosted and Glacier Bay is what sets these apart most in this context.
Home Office
In a home office, wall color sits in your peripheral vision for hours at a time, so temperature and undertone matter more than you might expect. The temperature contrast between Ghosted and Glacier Bay is what sets these apart most in this context.
Mudroom
A mudroom color needs to hold up under the most casual scrutiny: a glance as you're coming and going, often in mixed or artificial light. Ghosted brings more warmth to the space, while Glacier Bay keeps things cooler and crisper.
Patio
Patio colors are seen under changing outdoor light throughout the day — morning, midday, and golden hour each reveal different qualities. Ghosted brings more warmth to the space, while Glacier Bay keeps things cooler and crisper.
House
At full exterior scale, the difference between these two colors becomes much easier to judge than from a small chip. The temperature contrast between Ghosted and Glacier Bay is what sets these apart most in this context.
Front Door
Front doors are seen in isolation against the rest of the facade, which makes them a high-stakes surface where even subtle differences matter. Glacier Bay reads more restrained here, while Ghosted adds a sense of enclosure and warmth.

Ghosted vs Glacier Bay Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Ghosted on one side and Glacier Bay on the other.
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.
