Gossamer Veil vs Grey Heron
Both are Sherwin-Williams colors. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. At LRV 65 vs 62, Grey Heron will read as the brighter of the two — a 3-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. They share a warm quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. With a ΔE of 1.8, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
