Venetian Yellow vs F362
Venetian Yellow (Sherwin-Williams) and F362 (Tikkurila) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Venetian Yellow belongs to the beige-yellow family and F362 to the blue family. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 77 vs 77 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. A ΔE of 36.6 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.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Venetian Yellow on one side and F362 on the other.
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.
