The difference
Read from the numbersBoth read warm. Wabi is a beige, Monet a pink.
How they read
In their own wordsWabi is a Color Atelier lime paint — a soft off-white with a tiny addition of umber and black that pulls it toward pale taupe. Because it is a limewash, the colour is mottled and cloudy, moving between chalk white and warm stone across the wall.
Monet is a dusty, mauve-leaning pink with a beige base — a rose that has softened into something closer to lilac. At LRV 40 it is a real mid-tone, dark enough to feel enveloping in a small room and light enough to keep a powder room from going gloomy.
