The difference

Read from the numbers

Templeton Pink is the lighter of the two at LRV 47.44, 7.2 points above Sandbank at LRV 40.22. Both read warm. Sandbank is a red, Templeton Pink a pink. For a whole room, Templeton Pink is the safer, more forgiving choice thanks to its higher LRV, while Sandbank is the bolder pick.
