Bright Idea
PPG Bright Idea (PPG1210-5) carries the measured structure of its color data and the less predictable beauty of paint in a finished space. An LRV of 53 places it through the middle of the scale, where color and depth can remain visible as the light changes. Treat the digital swatch as an opening note, then watch a physical sample from morning light through evening lamps.
