One match per brand, ranked by ΔE — a perceptual color difference score calculated from Lab color space values. Lower is closer. Click any card to compare side by side in simulated rooms.
With LRVs of 55 and 54, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 0.7 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.
With LRVs of 54 and 52, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 0.8 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.
Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 54 vs 52), so neither reads brighter in a room. A ΔE of 1.4 means the difference barely reads in a finished room.
A 4-point LRV gap (54 vs 50) makes Shrimp Salad the marginally brighter of the two. A ΔE of 1.6 means the difference barely reads in a finished room.
A 5-point LRV gap (54 vs 49) makes Shrimp Salad the marginally brighter of the two. The ΔE 3.4 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.
Shrimp Salad reads slightly lighter (LRV 54 vs 48), a gap that shows most in low-lit rooms. At ΔE 3.6 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.
Magnolia reads slightly lighter (LRV 60 vs 54), a gap that shows most in low-lit rooms. At ΔE 3.8 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.
RAL 430-1 reads slightly lighter (LRV 62 vs 54), a gap that shows most in low-lit rooms. At ΔE 4.7 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.

A 5-point LRV gap (54 vs 49) makes Shrimp Salad the marginally brighter of the two. The ΔE 9.1 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.
Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 54 vs 53), so neither reads brighter in a room. A ΔE of 10.8 puts them firmly in different territory — a strong contrast if combined.
Light ivory reflects far more light (LRV 68 vs 54), opening up a space where Shrimp Salad encloses it. At ΔE 13.4 these are two genuinely different directions, not variations on a theme.
