Cascade vs Agreeable Gray
Cascade (PPG) and Agreeable Gray (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Cascade belongs to the blue-green family and Agreeable Gray to the greige-grey family. The 20-point LRV gap — 80 for Cascade vs 60 for Agreeable Gray — means Cascade will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 14.9 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Cascade vs Agreeable Gray Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Cascade on one side and Agreeable Gray 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.
