Ibis WhiteSherwin-WilliamsvsPaperTikkurilaΔE 2.8Subtle difference

Where Ibis White belongs to Sherwin-Williams's range, Paper is a Tikkurila color. Hue-wise, Ibis White belongs to the beige-white family and Paper to the beige-greige family. Paper (LRV 88) reflects noticeably more light than Ibis White (LRV 84), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 2.8, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.

Ibis White vs Paper in Real Spaces

2 real rooms side by side. Ibis White and Paper 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

In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The brightness difference is modest but present — Paper gives the walls a little more lift.

House

Seen across an entire facade, subtle tonal differences become pronounced. What reads as nearly the same on a chip often reads as clearly different at scale. Paper reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

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.
