Tarragon vs Yearling

TarragonSherwin-WilliamsvsYearlingSherwin-WilliamsΔE 40.2 — Very different colors

Tarragon and Yearling come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Hue-wise, Tarragon belongs to the blue-grey family and Yearling to the beige family. The 20-point LRV gap — 28 for Yearling vs 7 for Tarragon — means Yearling will open up a space more effectively. Where Tarragon leans cool, Yearling reads warm — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 40.2 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.
