Misty vs Superwhite
Misty and Superwhite come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Misty reads as blue-grey, while Superwhite reads as grey-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 64-point LRV gap — 64 for Misty vs 0 for Superwhite — means Misty will open up a space more effectively. Both share a neutral character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. ΔE 8.8 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Misty vs Superwhite in Real Spaces
1 real room side by side. Misty and Superwhite are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Misty reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Superwhite.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Misty on one side and Superwhite 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.
