Blue PaisleyPPGvsDelicate WhitePPGΔE 55.0Very different colors

Both from PPG's palette. Blue Paisley reads as blue, while Delicate White reads as white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Delicate White (LRV 88) reflects noticeably more light than Blue Paisley (LRV 20), a difference of 68 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. With a ΔE of 55.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
