First of all, you need to know that whites are divided into 2 categories: plain and wood. The first choice is therefore made here. Once you've decided, you have 3 more options for each. So what are their differences?
Pure whites
Classic white
W908: the Single white is the most common colour, most used because it is the most basic. It has a semi-matte texture, and matches the different colours easily.
Gloss White
U102_01: Great Gloss White is, as its name suggests, glossy with a silky smooth feel. It reflects light strongly and is ideal for a modern, refined effect.
Textured White, pronounced wood grain
W1000: the Textured White is the matt variation with relief. Its lines give it the character of linear woods, while still being a solid colour. It is therefore a perfect match for wood colours.
Wood colours
Woods obviously all have the same texture: a linear, vertical grain with matt aspects to offer depth to your furniture. Their difference lies in the colours:
White Nordic Tree, pronounced patterns
8508: the White Nordic Tree is a very cool white with veins tending towards very light grey. It has the same linearity in terms of texture as W1000, but the wood patterns are more pronounced, bringing relief to the colour.
Douglas Fir: a great linear structure
R50062: Douglas Fir White is slightly more yellowed than Nordic White Tree. Its veins are the finest and are more widely spaced overall. In terms of colour, they tend towards light or dark brown for some.
White Pine: the thickest patterns
K010: White Pine is the most different wood. In terms of colour, it is similar to White Nordic Tree, but its veins are closer together and are more visible because they are thicker and lean towards dark grey.
