In real rooms
Every room, each colorThe difference
Read from the numbersSilver Satin is the lighter of the two at LRV 75.3, 24.1 points above Groundhog Day at LRV 51.2. Both read warm. Groundhog Day is a pinks, Silver Satin a whites. For a whole room, Silver Satin 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.
Silver Satin is the quiet professional of the off-white world — soft, low-chroma, and just warm enough to never read as stark. In a north-facing room it settles into a calm greige; in afternoon sun it lifts to a clean, milky white without ever turning yellow.
