Imagine vs Swanky Gray
Both are Sherwin-Williams colors. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. At LRV 48 vs 45, Imagine will read as the brighter of the two — a 4-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Imagine's warm character against Swanky Gray's neutral — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 4.4, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.

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.
