Limelight vs Naval
Limelight (PPG) and Naval (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Limelight belongs to the green family and Naval to the blue family. The 55-point LRV gap — 59 for Limelight vs 4 for Naval — means Limelight will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 59.1 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.

Limelight vs Naval Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Limelight on one side and Naval 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.
