Travertine vs Wishful Blue
Travertine and Wishful Blue come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Travertine reads as beige, while Wishful Blue reads as blue — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 4-point LRV gap — 72 for Wishful Blue vs 68 for Travertine — means Wishful Blue will open up a space more effectively. Where Travertine leans warm, Wishful Blue reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 24.4 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
