Muslin vs Wheat Grass
Muslin and Wheat Grass come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. The 27-point LRV gap — 74 for Muslin vs 47 for Wheat Grass — means Muslin will open up a space more effectively. Both share a warm character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 21.6 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.

Muslin vs Wheat Grass Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Muslin on one side and Wheat Grass 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.
