Extra White vs Ice Cube
Extra White and Ice Cube come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Hue-wise, Extra White belongs to the white family and Ice Cube to the green-white family. The 9-point LRV gap — 86 for Extra White vs 77 for Ice Cube — means Extra White will open up a space more effectively. Both share a neutral character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. ΔE 3.9 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Extra White vs Ice Cube in Real Spaces
1 real room side by side. Extra White and Ice Cube 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
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. Extra White reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Ice Cube.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Extra White on one side and Ice Cube 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.
