Griffin vs Lupine

Griffin and Lupine come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Griffin reads as greige-grey, while Lupine reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 3-point LRV gap — 16 for Lupine vs 13 for Griffin — means Lupine will open up a space more effectively. Where Griffin leans warm, Lupine reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 35.9 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
