Modern Lavender vs Panorama

Modern LavenderSherwin-WilliamsvsPanoramaTikkurilaΔE 3.7Noticeable difference

Modern Lavender is a Sherwin-Williams color while Panorama comes from Tikkurila. These are both blue-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue-grey to land. At LRV 45 vs 40, Panorama will read as the brighter of the two — a 4-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 3.7, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. 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.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
