S 0500-N vs Pegasus
Where S 0500-N belongs to NCS's range, Pegasus is a PPG color. S 0500-N reads as beige-greige, while Pegasus reads as white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. S 0500-N (LRV 85) reflects noticeably more light than Pegasus (LRV 80), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 2.2, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
S 0500-N vs Pegasus in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. S 0500-N and Pegasus are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The brightness difference is modest but present — S 0500-N gives the walls a little more lift.
House
Seen across an entire facade, subtle tonal differences become pronounced. What reads as nearly the same on a chip often reads as clearly different at scale. S 0500-N reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

S 0500-N vs Pegasus Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see S 0500-N on one side and Pegasus on the other.
Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
