Restoration vs Sticks & Stones
Both are Sherwin-Williams colors. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. At LRV 38 vs 31, Restoration will read as the brighter of the two — a 6-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. They share a warm quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. At ΔE 5.4, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.
