K494 vs Lido

K494TikkurilavsLidoTikkurilaΔE 2.5Subtle difference

K494 and Lido come from the same Tikkurila collection. Both sit in the green-grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 3-point LRV gap — 53 for K494 vs 50 for Lido — means K494 will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 2.5 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a 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.
