Both are Sherwin-Williams colors. Hue-wise, Red Bay belongs to the pink-red family and Riverway to the blue-grey family. At LRV 16 vs 9, Riverway will read as the brighter of the two — a 7-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Red Bay's warm character against Riverway's cool — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. At ΔE 50.7, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions.

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.
