Pediment vs Universal Khaki
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Pediment reads as greige-grey, while Universal Khaki reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Pediment (LRV 61) reflects noticeably more light than Universal Khaki (LRV 41), a difference of 21 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 15.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

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.
