Indigo Batik vs Succulent
Both are Sherwin-Williams colors. Indigo Batik reads as blue, while Succulent reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 14 vs 8, Succulent will read as the brighter of the two — a 6-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Indigo Batik's cool character against Succulent's neutral — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 20.3, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. Below you'll find 6 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Indigo Batik vs Succulent in Real Spaces
6 real rooms side by side. Seeing Indigo Batik and Succulent in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.
Living Room
Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. Succulent has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.
Bedroom
Bedroom walls are often seen under warm artificial light, a context that shifts both colors from how they look on a chip. The brightness difference is modest but present — Succulent gives the walls a little more lift.
Dining Room
Dining room light is typically the warmest in the house, which shifts both colors toward the red end of the spectrum compared to daylight. Succulent reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.
Bathroom
Bathrooms amplify color — the enclosed space and reflective surfaces make what reads subtle elsewhere feel more present here. The brightness difference is modest but present — Succulent gives the walls a little more lift.
Home Office
In a home office, wall color sits in your peripheral vision for hours at a time, so temperature and undertone matter more than you might expect. The brightness difference is modest but present — Succulent gives the walls a little more lift.
Kitchen Cabinets
On cabinetry, undertone and temperature become more pronounced against countertops and hardware. The brightness difference is modest but present — Succulent gives the walls a little more lift.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Indigo Batik on one side and Succulent on the other.
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.
