Serene Stream vs Agreeable Gray
Serene Stream (PPG) and Agreeable Gray (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. Serene Stream reads as blue, while Agreeable Gray reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 28-point LRV gap — 60 for Agreeable Gray vs 32 for Serene Stream — means Agreeable Gray will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 25.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
