Spatial White vs Vesper Violet
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Spatial White belongs to the grey-white family and Vesper Violet to the blue-grey family. Spatial White (LRV 72) reflects noticeably more light than Vesper Violet (LRV 35), a difference of 36 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Spatial White runs neutral while Vesper Violet is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 24.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Spatial White on one side and Vesper Violet on the other.
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.
