Mosaic vs Tide

MosaicTikkurilavsTideTikkurilaΔE 9.3Noticeable difference

Both are Tikkurila colors. Mosaic reads as blue, while Tide reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. With LRVs of 30 and 31, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. At ΔE 9.3, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. 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.
