Van Dyke Brown vs Piazza
Van Dyke Brown (Sherwin-Williams) and Piazza (Tikkurila) come from different manufacturers. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. The 58-point LRV gap — 65 for Piazza vs 7 for Van Dyke Brown — means Piazza will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 54.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
