Natural White vs Paper
Natural White (Sherwin-Williams) and Paper (Tikkurila) come from different manufacturers. Natural White reads as greige-white, while Paper reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 5-point LRV gap — 88 for Paper vs 83 for Natural White — means Paper will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 2.6 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room.

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.
