Rose Hip vs Artichoke

Rose HipPPGvsArtichokeSherwin-WilliamsΔE 31.6 — Very different colors

Rose Hip is a PPG color while Artichoke comes from Sherwin-Williams. Rose Hip reads as pink-red, while Artichoke reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 52 vs 21, Rose Hip will read as the brighter of the two — a 31-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 31.6, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. Below you'll find 6 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Rose Hip vs Artichoke in Real Spaces

6 real rooms side by side. Seeing Rose Hip 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

Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. Rose Hip returns significantly more light to the room — in a smaller or darker space, that difference in perceived brightness is hard to miss.

Home Office

In a home office, wall color sits in your peripheral vision for hours at a time, so temperature and undertone matter more than you might expect. The LRV gap is large enough that Rose Hip will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Artichoke would.

Front Door

Front doors are seen in isolation against the rest of the facade, which makes them a high-stakes surface where even subtle differences matter. Rose Hip 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.
