Honeypot vs Indigo
Honeypot and Indigo come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Honeypot reads as beige, while Indigo reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 68-point LRV gap — 75 for Honeypot vs 6 for Indigo — means Honeypot will open up a space more effectively. Where Honeypot leans warm, Indigo reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 77.0 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
