Greige vs Simple Stone
Where Greige belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, Simple Stone is a Sherwin-Williams color. Greige reads as greige-grey, while Simple Stone reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (55 vs 57), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. At ΔE 1.8, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. 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 Greige on one side and Simple Stone 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.
