Wrought ironTikkurilavsPassagewayValsparΔE 11.9Distinct difference

Wrought iron (Tikkurila) and Passageway (Valspar) come from different manufacturers. Wrought iron reads as grey, while Passageway reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 5-point LRV gap — 14 for Passageway vs 9 for Wrought iron — means Passageway will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 11.9 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.

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.
