Night Out vs Steely Gray
Night Out and Steely Gray come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Night Out reads as grey, while Steely Gray reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 16-point LRV gap — 30 for Steely Gray vs 14 for Night Out — means Steely Gray 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. A ΔE of 17.5 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.

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.
