Granite Boulder
PPG Granite Boulder (PPG1015-6) carries the measured structure of its color data and the less predictable beauty of paint in a finished space. Its LRV of 16 gives it real visual weight, allowing the color to hold a wall rather than simply recede from view. Treat the digital swatch as an opening note, then watch a physical sample from morning light through evening lamps.
