Every room, each colorThe difference
Read from the numbersDune White is the lighter of the two at LRV 82, 30.8 points above Groundhog Day at LRV 51.2. Both read warm. Groundhog Day is a pinks, Dune White a whites. For a whole room, Dune White is the safer, more forgiving choice thanks to its higher LRV, while Groundhog Day is the bolder pick.
How they read
In their own wordsA warm pink with just enough grey to keep it adult, Groundhog Day turns afternoon light the color of the inside of a shell. Drenched across walls and ceiling it reads like aged plaster; used on a single wall it warms a room without ever announcing itself as pink.
Dune White is a versatile off-white with hushed cream undertones and just enough beige-grey to keep it balanced — neither too yellow nor too cool. With an LRV near 82 it keeps a room bright and open, which is why it works so well as a whole-wall color behind bolder furniture and art.
