Lemon Twist vs Sunny Side Up paint color comparison

Lemon Twist vs Sunny Side Up

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Lemon Twist belongs to the beige-yellow family and Sunny Side Up to the beige family. Lemon Twist (LRV 72) reflects noticeably more light than Sunny Side Up (LRV 65), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 8.8 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
