Ruby Violet vs Veri Berri
Ruby Violet and Veri Berri come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Hue-wise, Ruby Violet belongs to the grey-purple family and Veri Berri to the grey family. The 3-point LRV gap — 24 for Ruby Violet vs 21 for Veri Berri — means Ruby Violet will open up a space more effectively. Both share a cool character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 12.4 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
