Ice Cube vs Shoji White
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Ice Cube belongs to the green-white family and Shoji White to the beige-greige family. Ice Cube (LRV 77) reflects noticeably more light than Shoji White (LRV 74), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Ice Cube runs neutral while Shoji White is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 5.7 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Ice Cube vs Shoji White in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Ice Cube and Shoji White 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 temperature contrast between Shoji White and Ice Cube is what sets these apart most in this context.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Shoji White brings more warmth to the space, while Ice Cube keeps things cooler and crisper.

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.
