Mythical vs Original White

Mythical and Original White come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Mythical reads as blue-grey, while Original White reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 54-point LRV gap — 74 for Original White vs 20 for Mythical — means Original White will open up a space more effectively. Where Mythical leans cool, Original White reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 40.2 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
