Echo Park vs Underseas in Real Spaces
5 real rooms side by side. Echo Park and Underseas are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The temperature contrast between Underseas and Echo Park is what sets these apart most in this context.
Bedroom
The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Underseas brings more warmth to the space, while Echo Park keeps things cooler and crisper.

House
Seen across an entire facade, subtle tonal differences become pronounced. What reads as nearly the same on a chip often reads as clearly different at scale. Underseas brings more warmth to the space, while Echo Park keeps things cooler and crisper.
