Shoji White vs K488
Shoji White (Sherwin-Williams) and K488 (Tikkurila) come from different manufacturers. Shoji White reads as beige-greige, while K488 reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 40-point LRV gap — 74 for Shoji White vs 34 for K488 — means Shoji White will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 25.7 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
