Symmetry vs Tarragon

SymmetrySherwin-WilliamsvsTarragonSherwin-WilliamsΔE 51.5 — Very different colors

Symmetry and Tarragon come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Hue-wise, Symmetry belongs to the beige-greige family and Tarragon to the blue-grey family. The 53-point LRV gap — 61 for Symmetry vs 7 for Tarragon — means Symmetry will open up a space more effectively. Where Symmetry leans warm, Tarragon reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 51.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
