Plymouth Green vs Shoji White
Plymouth Green and Shoji White come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Plymouth Green reads as green-yellow, while Shoji White reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 29-point LRV gap — 74 for Shoji White vs 45 for Plymouth Green — means Shoji White will open up a space more effectively. Where Plymouth Green leans neutral, Shoji White reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 20.4 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
