Kestrel White vs Piazza
Where Kestrel White belongs to Sherwin-Williams's range, Piazza is a Tikkurila color. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. Kestrel White (LRV 68) reflects noticeably more light than Piazza (LRV 65), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.1 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.
Kestrel White vs Piazza in Real Spaces

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 — Kestrel White gives the walls a little more lift.
Kitchen
In a kitchen, colors are seen under bright task lighting that amplifies undertones — what reads neutral elsewhere can show its hand here. Kestrel White 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.
