Lime Green vs Lime Rickey
Lime Green (PPG) and Lime Rickey (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Lime Green reads as green-yellow, while Lime Rickey reads as yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 3-point LRV gap — 48 for Lime Green vs 45 for Lime Rickey — means Lime Green will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 6.6 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. 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.
