Link GraySherwin-WilliamsvsMountain FigSherwin-WilliamsΔE 31.3 — Very different colors

Link Gray and Mountain Fig come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Link Gray reads as grey, while Mountain Fig reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 16-point LRV gap — 21 for Link Gray vs 4 for Mountain Fig — means Link Gray will open up a space more effectively. Where Link Gray leans neutral, Mountain Fig reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 31.3 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. 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.
