Mellow Mint vs Snowbound
Mellow Mint (PPG) and Snowbound (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Mellow Mint reads as green-yellow, while Snowbound reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 6-point LRV gap — 83 for Snowbound vs 77 for Mellow Mint — means Snowbound will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 23.2 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.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Mellow Mint on one side and Snowbound 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.
