Sky High vs Topsail
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Sky High belongs to the blue family and Topsail to the blue-green family. Sky High (LRV 78) reflects noticeably more light than Topsail (LRV 75), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean cool, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. At ΔE 2.5, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Sky High vs Topsail in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Sky High and Topsail are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room

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.
