Tradewind vs Y436
Tradewind (Sherwin-Williams) and Y436 (Tikkurila) come from different manufacturers. Tradewind reads as blue-grey, while Y436 reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 4-point LRV gap — 65 for Y436 vs 61 for Tradewind — means Y436 will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 3.5 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. 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.
