A searchable catalog of 19,594 paint colors across 11 brands, with hex values, undertones, room previews, cross-brand matches, and paint-quantity calculations.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-17 issue.

Field notes

The catalog spans 19,594 colors from 11 named paint brands and organizes them by brand, color family, and manufacturer code. Its comparison workflow uses CIE Lab distance to rank cross-brand matches, while individual entries include room previews under three light conditions and a wall-dimension calculator that returns quantities in gallons, liters, or fluid ounces. The displayed light-reflectance value is calculated from each published hex value rather than measured directly.
