Radisson vs Artichoke

RadissonPPGvsArtichokeSherwin-WilliamsΔE 41.1Very different colors

Radisson (PPG) and Artichoke (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Radisson reads as white, while Artichoke reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 59-point LRV gap — 80 for Radisson vs 21 for Artichoke — means Radisson will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 41.1 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 6 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Radisson vs Artichoke in Real Spaces

6 real rooms side by side. Seeing Radisson and Artichoke in actual rooms makes the difference concrete; browse the spaces below to get a feel for how each color lives on a wall.

Living Room

A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Radisson reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Artichoke.

Bedroom

Bedrooms are typically lit with warmer, lower light than the rest of the house — a condition that flatters warm tones and deepens cool ones. Radisson returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Small bathrooms intensify color. A shade that seems quiet in a larger room can feel immersive when you're surrounded by it on four walls. Radisson returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Home Office

Home office walls matter more than most — you're looking at them all day, and a color that reads fine at first can become tiring over time. Radisson returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

House

A full exterior is the most demanding test for a paint color — scale and outdoor light both amplify differences that seem small on a swatch. Radisson returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

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.
