ElusionPPGvsGoose FeathersValsparΔE 2.8Subtle difference

Where Elusion belongs to PPG's range, Goose Feathers is a Valspar color. Elusion reads as grey, while Goose Feathers reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (63 vs 65), so they'll read as similarly Light in most lighting conditions. At ΔE 2.8, 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 4 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Elusion vs Goose Feathers in Real Spaces

4 real rooms side by side. Elusion and Goose Feathers 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 two are close enough that the choice comes down to finer qualities — undertone, texture, what the color sits next to.

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.
